About the Item

IN-FLIGHT ADJUSTMENT is an acrylic on canvas surrealist painting by Brooklyn, New York artist Tony Geiger. It measures 22x26" and is a unique artwork. It's a classic Geiger – balancing objects and figures of differing scale, different points of history – the submarine, the gladiator, both poised for action in a battle that never happened... From Tony Geiger – "A Roman gladiator, a Russian submarine, a dining room set, add a dove. Chaos ensues." Tony Geiger has said his paintings take you to a certain place, but you have to find your own way back. The world he creates encompasses both classical surrealism and more contemporary concerns. Conflict is usually present. These mischievous juxtapositions make statements on the human condition – either politically, physically or spiritually. Geiger wants the viewer to be challenged and amused by this mixture of the macabre and the playful. A graduate of the School of Visual Arts, New York and a longtime NYC resident, Tony Geiger still considers himself a transplanted Californian. He has exhibited paintings at the Sideshow Gallery in Williamsburg, the Barbican Centre in London, England, Miami Projects at Art Basel, Ceres Gallery in Chelsea, NYC, and he was accepted into The Drawing Center’s Viewing Program. Tony Geiger lives in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn with his studio nearby in Gowanus.
