As an African American artist during the 60s, Gilliam faced criticism for not overtly addressing political and social issues in his abstract works. But he was committed to abstraction and to pushing the boundaries of artistic expression. #SamGilliam

Here’s to the crazy ones.
The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers.
The round pegs in the square holes.
The ones who see things differently.

Oil stained shaped canvas Subtle shades of reds, yellows, blues, greens, off-whites. Vertical orientation with amorphous shapes.
Sam Gilliam (American, 1933-2022) Parallel, 1969 Oil stained shaped canvas
This Sam Gillian work was one of my favorite discoveries today. The subtle color contrasts are enlightening.
