About the Item

Robert Gary Miller "Pauline" ( Indigenous Canadian 1950-) 1990 signed and numbered 7/10 artist proof lithograph. Framed and matted. See our other items for more R.G. Miller paintings. Actual size- 22.5" H x 18.5" W, framed size- 33.38 H x 28.75 W About the Artist Robert Gary Miller-Lahiaaks was born in 1950 on the six nations Mohawk Reserve near Brantford Ontario. At the age of two he was taken from his Longhouse family and his community. Miller served eleven years (1953-1964) in the Mohawk Institute, or as it was known to student-inmates- the Mush Hole. During Miller's time at the Mush Hole he experienced violent daily life that included sexual assault at the hands of staff. Miller uses his art to tell the story of what happened to him and others within the residential school. "Serving Time at The Mush Hole: Visual Testimony of R. G. Miller-Lahiaaks (Mohawk, Six Nations) — Selected works from Mush Hole Remembered (2008)." opened at the Shingwauk Residential Schools Centre on September 12, 2013. In the words of artist R.G. Miller, this exhibit represents “a combination of vague, mundane memories of years at the school, and flashes of horror experienced there. They are the strongest memories I could approach without descending into a place I would not be able to emerge from.” R. G. Miller was educated at the Ontario College of Art, the University of Toronto, and Trent University. His classical art education equipped him to work with great versatility in several modes of contemporary art. His style can be variously reminiscent of the Group of Seven, Miro, Rothko and Edvard Munch among others. While expressing a distinctive yet varied Miller style, he can move the viewer to a place of deep sorrow, kin with the world’s suffering and his own, and he can lift the viewer to great heights on the wings of colour and brush stroke which fuels the imagination and lightens the spirit. R. G. Miller is one of Canada’s most distinctive Indigenous artists at work today, reflecting his own Indigenous experience in a multi-faceted artistic conversation across diverse modes and cultures.

Post Modern Native American Portrait Painting of a Native Woman - Clair Seglem
Located in Oklahoma City, OK
Sourced from the estate of the late Oklahoma artist Clair Seglam. An airforce man for most of his life, Seglem only began painting after his retirement. Most known for his vibrant portraits and nudes, he completed a vast portfolio of work before he died in 2020. This piece is part of a collection that was found in one of his old sketchbooks. It was hidden away in our warehouse when we happened upon it during inventory one day. To our surprise, the notebook held a jewel box of unseen work. This piece is a portrait of a native woman on a brown background. The woman has long braided dark hair and wears a black sleeveless top. She has a red lip and long beaded earrings. The background is a watercolor...
