28 West Second Gallery & Studio Space presents Habitats & History: A Collection in Photo-Expressionism by Jim Miller. Please Join us for the Artist reception Tomorrow Evening Saturday, November 7, 2009, 7 - 10 PM. Exhibition continues through November 28, 2009.

Artist, writer and archeologist Jim Miller's paintings originate from personal photographs, then he recreates them. He has coined this method as "photo expressionism" differing from photo realism because it is only a representation of the original photograph. Thus, we are merely spectators in Mr. Miller's versions of events. Experiences such as archaeological digs and painting industrial remains of Western Pennsylvania, inspired Mr. Miller to call upon his own historical roots and conjure up self-discovery with this presented collection of works.

Mr. Miller is presently working on a book, Miller's Illustrated, Industrial-Strength Metaphysics . It is a comment on the gods of organized religion, and a project to pose a metaphysical alternative. He uses his life as a vehicle to tell a story of what he has learned, and is still learning, about the 'beyond the physical' realm in the course of his life.
