Creative Growth artist Dan Miller included in exhibition at Museum of Modern Art, New York.

From March 26 through July 7, 2008, Creative Growth artist Dan Miller’s artwork is on view in a group show at MoMA, New York, entitled Glossolalia: Languages of Drawing. Dan Miller has made artwork in the Creative Growth studio for more than ten years. National and international collectors alike have admired and purchased Miller's idiosyncratic, obsessive drawings and paintings of layered text . After an introduction made to the drawings department at MoMA, via Matthew Higgs, Chief Curator at White Columns, New York, the museum acquired Miller’s work for its permanent collection.

The inclusion of Miller’s work in the collection of a major American, contemporary art museum is a revolutionary achievement for an artist with a disability, for whom artwork is so often categorized as “Outsider Art," or dismissed altogether.  Dan Miller has also been exhibited at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts and Rena Bransten Gallery, San Francisco, Gavin Brown's enterprise and White Columns, New York. Please see images of this artist's work in the "Artists" section of this website.
