Greg Miller
Greg Miller grew up in '50s– and '60s–era Sacramento, inspired by the rush of billboards, posters, ads and text that shaped the flat delta landscapes and pulp fiction images of his youth. Layer upon layer of images — one billboard or poster slapped over the next — formed a sort of cultural geology, where the passage of time might jumble, conceal and reveal an archeology of images, their stories hidden and hinted at in the remaining fragments.
Labeled a “neo-Pop” and “post-Pop” artist by such critics as Donald Kuspit and Peter Frank, Miller does indeed draw from pop cultural imagery that saturated American consciousness during the 1950s and 1960s. It was a time when advertising and text became indelibly encrypted into our experience of everyday life. Life as “advertised” and life as “lived” became insuperably intertwined on the pages of LIFE and LOOK magazines, on television shows, commercials, billboards, hotel signs, romance novels and even matchbook covers as never before. Miller’s paintings excavate this imagery and often appear as unreconstructed fragments of these signs, drips, patterns and phrases.
Miller’s work is featured in numerous museum and private collections, including those of the Frederick R. Weisman Foundation and Charles Saatchi Foundation.

- "If the full Moon Loves You, Why Worry About the Stars" African woman butterflyBy Janice FrameLocated in Edgartown, MA"As an African-American artist in today’s world, I embody the vast differences found in our collective backgrounds. I view them as cultural assets. We are always self discovering and these self discoveries take us in surprising directions. We must gain strength from what we learn from each other as well as listen to that persistent, ever present, intuitive self. The connection of one’s own rich heritage and person growth will travel into the inevitable and critical connection between African Americans and Africa. These connections are rich and very important. They Exist! My work, I hope, will serve as a creative connection between the African diaspora and western culture. It is this connection that cause my creative forces to react." Janice Frame...Category
