Classical Underground Showcase:
Adam Miller
"Among The Ruins" 79" x 57" oil on canvas
We are privileged to
welcome for November's CU showcase one of our East Coast "brothers," a
wonderful New York artist Adam Miller.
It is so exciting to see how the young generation of some of the most promising American artists is resolutely making Realism grounded in a classical tradition the language of choice in expressing our modern thoughts, views and feelings. With strong influences of Baroque and Mannerist masters, Adam's classically inspired imagery carries a strong sense of unabashed Romanticism.
Opening Reception: Saturday, November 10, 8:00 - 11:30 p.m.
"Among the Ruins looks at different family's existing in a post industrial world looking back at what appears to be the remnants of a time of great expansion and strength from a distance after the machinery of state has collapsed. The new hope represented by their children exists against the darkness of the scattered corpse like remnants of their world. But as the darkest day of winter is also the beginning of the suns return these families are the first to begin rebuilding their society and planting new crops" - describes the gallery Adam's work.

Today, as we experience dramatic change in the flow of global
events, and rapid shifts in the ways society used to function through
the last century, the Romantic notion of the liberating of the Personal
is once again destined to shift the course of cultural history through
the work of this great new generation.
Adam's intriguing works will be presented by Copro Gallery in Bergamot Station in the exhibition titled "Among The Ruins".
Opening Reception: Saturday, November 10, 8:00 - 11:30 p.m.
exhibit runs November 10 - December 1 , 2012
