Greg Miller’s work offers the excitement of discovery mixed with the unexpected thrill of recovering something long lost. Bold contemporary images and popular themes are intermingled with text and presented in billboard-like simplicity, offering a varied and often surprising look at the timelessness of American historical and cultural events. The merging of pop culture, American Art, and the conceptual art movement of the 60s and 70s provide the content that is found throughout his art, paintings, and films.
Greg Miller’s work is featured in the Charles Saatchi Collection, the Frederick R. Weisman Collection, and the corporate collections of Playboy, AmFAR, and Interscope Records. His work can also be seen in the permanent collections of the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art, the San Jose Museum of Art, and in numerous private collections.
In addition to his painting career, Greg has created short films such as The Kidnapping and Darth Days, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival. His third film project, Go Fish, previewed at Art Basel – Miami Beach in December 2006.
