The World of Ballet...
Born August 21, 1930 in Humpolec, Czechoslovakia. Milan Med introduced dance drawings at his first Prague exhibition in 1962. After this show, Med's pastels, drawings, paintings and engravings became published in American gymnastics magazines which caused his popularity to build worldwide and ignited his art career internationally.
Large size oil paintings by Milan Med represent the other art creation. Their iconography accents psychological aspects of a protagonist life - the intense concentration before a performance, the thrill waiting behind the scenes, the gratitude for applause, or with the exhaustion just after a difficult performance.
Also included in the current Med collection are a series of oils depicting the biblical story of Christ and the Samaritan woman and a grouping of pastel and oil nudes.
