Artists

John Miller

Press release

The show takes place simultaneously in Berlin, both at Meyer Riegger and Trautwein Herleth, as well as at Meyer Riegger in Karlsruhe. Each part of the exhibition will present an exploration of a different thematic aspect of Miller’s oeuvre.

In his extensive and multi-layered practice, John Miller (*1954, Cleveland, Ohio) repeatedly counteracts the longings of Western consumer society. With his eclectic approach and his sceptical as well as ironic artistic strategy, he explores the autonomy of the work of art while examining the myth of artistic genius. The result is a commentary on identity, economy, culture and socio-political issues constantly questioning established values.
