John Miller- visiting artist at Tyler




John Miller came to Tyler as a visiting artist. He lectured and gave a demo. The lecture he gave was talked about his different bodies of work were he concentrates on blown glass with several diverse bodies of work. One series pays homage to Claes Oldenburg, whose larger-than-life pop sculptures of everyday objects inspired John to investigate the translation of everyday goblets and glassware to oversize proportion. His jumbo wine and martini glasses (some holding as much as 5 gallons) have been exhibited nationally in galleries and at the SOFA exhibition in Chicago.
