Indepth Arts News: "Pixel Perfect to Feature Work by J. Coleman Miller" 2008-04-18 until 2008-05-08 Agora Gallery New York, NY, USA United States of America
J. Coleman Miller's giclée prints occupy an ambiguous space between photographic abstraction and highly stylized representation. Certain small components remain so close to recognizable images that they stretch and tease our desire for closure to its breaking point. Miller uses his titles to extenuate this uncertainty: they prescribe a specific reading to each image, a reading that is simultaneously made impossible by the photographs' levels of abstractions.
Miller thereby creates a spirit of free play in which the images are liberated from the confines of linear interpretation, inviting viewers to take part in the production of meaning. Giving into the abstract aspects of the photographs, their strong colors and dynamic distortions convey energy and sensation. Instead of representing a specific place, action or object, they evoke sudden outbursts of emotion, moments of fleeting intensity. This expressive component of Miller's work, however, is never completely stable. Rather than suggesting a final emotional equation, his works lead the viewer into a continuous game of re-imagining.

From April 18 through May 8, 2008 the Agora Gallery in Chelsea will exhibit "Pixel Perfect". If traditionalism is to mean more than simply "resistance to progress", it must allow for the expansion of tradition, new traditions, and new paradigms. Pixel Perfect – the Digital Fine Art Exhibition comes in this spirit, bringing together a variety of work from the burgeoning digital frontier by artists availing themselves of new sorts of palette and canvas. Stewart Michael Bruce, Didier Deleidi, JOUANNE, Kaori Michishita, J. Coleman Miller, Pankaj Mistry, T. Mikey, Maria Trezzi will included in the exhibition. J. Coleman Miller has been a Premiere Portfolio Member at absolutearts.com since 2006.
