Allison Miller (b. 1974, Evanston, IL) lives and works in Los Angeles. Drawing from a wide variety of sources – art history, cartoons, graphics, nature, and her own life, to name just a few – Miller’s works deal with both system and intuition, index and improvisation - revealing painting as a site for thought and discovery.
Miller received her MFA from the University of California, Los Angeles, and her BFA from Rhode Island School of Design. She has exhibited widely at institutions and galleries, including solo exhibitions at Susan Inglett Gallery (New York), The Pit (Los Angeles), and ACME. (Los Angeles), as well as in group exhibitions at Shrine, LA, Miles McEnery, NY, Philip Martin, LA, Kunstmuseum Mühlheim an der Ruhr, the Pizzuti Collection, Columbus, and the Hammer Museum, LA.
Miller’s work can be found in the permanent collections of the Frances Lehman Loeb Art Center, Vassar College; the Orange County Museum of Art, Newport Beach; the Pizzuti Collection, Columbus; the Santa Barbara Museum of Art; and the Neuberger Museum of Art, Purchase, among others. Her work has been reviewed in Artforum, Frieze, The New Yorker, Hyperallergic, and The Los Angeles Times, among others.
