Milo Reice, born in 1952, develops narrative paintings in which references to the past enter into dialogue with the present. Trained at the Tyler School of Art, he gives drawings, sketches and studies a preparatory and improvisational role. Documented works reveal a varied approach to materials: oil painting appears alongside gouache, collage and, in some mixed-media compositions, clay on cardboard. References to Greek mythology and to Langston Hughes indicate the breadth of subjects he addresses. These connections invite viewers to read the work as a space for storytelling, where different figures and memories can meet. His range of materials accompanies this movement between historical and cultural worlds.
