Summary:

"Guest curated by Dr. Marin R. Sullivan, Edgar Miller: Anti-Modern, 1917-1967 is the most extensive solo presentation of Miller's work to date and will feature approximately 85 fragments, artworks, graphics, and pieces of ephemera reflecting all facets of Miller's career, including representative examples of his drawing, painting, sculpture, printmaking, illustration and graphic design, textiles, ceramics, jewelry, woodcarving, stained glass, interior design, and architectural projects. Because so much of Miller's career was spent working collaboratively, the exhibition will also include pieces created by some of Miller's colleagues and influential contemporaries, including Hester Miller Murray, Andrew Rebori, and Jesús Torres"--From DePaul Art Museum's website.
