Thinking about the approach and experience of Milan Pantelic, we realize that he firmly places himself among world artists and philosophers, with a profound vision of a modern man with all his worries, pressures and changes. Milan’s characters recall the transformed characters of Frensis Bakon, his dumb screams on Munkov’s “Vrisak”, and his thoughts on Boys’ philosophy. Pantelic’s art is not only visual entertainment, it even takes us through conceptual dimensions outside the space, using the symbols of a consumer society like empty-sometimes full – bags packed on the net, at the same time screaming, figure. This gimmick figure sometimes looks like an actor in an inner struggle with a modern society that through machinery, modern technologies, unlimited means of communication and permanent conflict turned into something that is only in the outer form of “more human.” Pantelic finds a way to express the concern of a modern man through the advancement his talent and artistic skills, technique and manipulation of shape and color.
