Dan Miller
B 1961 (California, USA)
DAN MILLER'S ART REFLECTS HIS PERCEPTIONS THROUGH THE GRADUAL REPETITION OF LETTERS AND WORDS, DRAWN, PAINTED OR TYPED, BUILDING TO THE POINT OF FORMALIST ABSTRACTION. LETTERS AND WORDS ARE REPEATEDLY OVERDRAWN, OFTEN CREATING INK LAYERED MASSES, HOVERING ON THE PAGE AND BUILT UP TO THE POINT OF OBLITERATION OR DESTRUCTION OF THE GROUND. EACH WORK CONTAINS THE WRITTEN RECORDING OF THE ARTIST’S OBSESSION WITH OBJECTS LIKE LIGHT BULBS, ELECTRICAL SOCKETS, FOOD AND THE NAMES OF CITIES AND PEOPLE. MILLER'S WORK IS INCLUDED IN THE PERMANENT COLLECTION OF THE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART, NEW YORK.
