About the Item
Melissa Miller
Untitled (Fossil), 1998
4 color lithograph on paper
Hand signed and numbered 74/100 in pencil on the lower right front
28 1/2 × 21 inches
Unframed
Melissa Miller’s paintings are recognizable for their detailed portrayal of animals and the violence of the natural world. In compositions that range from landscapes crowded with figures in the style of Old Master history painting to surreal individual portraits, Miller contends with the strange and the mundane alike, employing her distinctly fantastical yet incisive vision.
Miller has shown her artwork extensively throughout the country, including exhibitions at the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington, D.C.; the Brooklyn Museum of Art, Brooklyn, New York; The Albright Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo, New York; the New Orleans Museum of Art, New Orleans, Louisiana; the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, San Francisco, California; The New Museum, New York, New York; the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.; the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, Texas; the Contemporary Arts Museum, Houston, Texas; The Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, Texas; and the Dallas Museum of Art, Texas. Miller represented the United States for the 41st Biennale di Venezia and has also exhibited in the prestigious Whitney Biennial.
Among her many honors, Miller has been the recipient of three individual Artist Fellowships from the National Endowments for the Arts (NEA), as well as awards from the Anonymous Was a Woman Foundation, the Dallas Museum of Art, The Art League of Houston, the Dallas Visual Arts Association, and the National Council of Arts Administrators. In addition, she was named “Texas State Artist of the Year” in 2011 by the Texas State Legislature.
Miller’s paintings are featured in many public collections, such as the Albright-Knox Gallery, Buffalo, New York; the Dallas Museum of Art, Texas; The Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, Texas; the Blanton Museum of Art, Austin, Texas; The Contemporary Museum, Honolulu, Hawaii; the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, Texas; the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, California; The National Museum of Women in the Arts, Washington, D.C.; the El Paso Museum of Art, Texas; the Orland Museum of Art, Florida; Sweet Briar College, Virginia; and the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington, D.C.

Nora Speyer
Untitled, from the Long Point Gallery Portfolio, 1988
Lithograph on paper with deckled edges
Hand signed, numbered 22/30 and dated on lower front
22 × 15 inches
Unframed
Hand signed, numbered 22/30 and dated on lower front
Publisher: Long Point Gallery, Inc., Provincetown, Massachusetts; Printer: Bruce Porter from Trestle Editions Limited, New York
Rarely to market, this stunning 1988 woodcut was created by Nora Speyer as part of a portfolio produced for sale by Long Point Gallery, an artist's cooperative in Provincetown, Massachusetts.
Superb provenance as it is was acquired from the original Long Point Portfolio. This will be the first time the work will be removed from the portfolio.
It is hand signed and numbered from a very small edition of only 30; it is in fine condition, unframed and never framed, and housed in the original portfolio box, with the original colophon page, which also included works by 11 other artists.
For reference and provenance we have included an image of the colophon page from the complete portfolio.
About Nora Speyer:
The most exciting place to me is where I can communicate with the greatest number of artists. I can't live without some artists around. I'm not saying artists are likable. They can be very objectionable, but they are still my world.
