Allison Miller (artist)

Allison Miller (born 1974 in Evanston, Illinois)[1][2] is a contemporary artist based in Los Angeles.[2][3]

Miller received her BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design in 1996, and her MFA from the University of California, Los Angeles in 2001.[3][4]

She has had multiple solo exhibits at galleries including the ACME Gallery in Los Angeles and at the Susan Inglett gallery in New York City.[3][5][6][7][8][9] Her work was also part of a group exhibit, "Made in L.A. 2012", at the Hammer Museum,[1] and has been included in the permanent collection of the Orange County Museum of Art.[10]

Miller's art combines multiple media including oil paints, acrylic, pencil, and dirt.[3] Her pieces use bright colors, bold forms and textures,[1] and tentative and improvised sketchy lines,[6][7] producing what has been described as a gravity-defying three-dimensional sculptural effect.[5]
