John Miller: Walking in the City
April 26 - May 27, 2025
Opening Saturday, April 26, 6 – 8 pm
John Miller presents a recent iteration of his long-standing photographic project, The Middle of the Day, together with a related video work, Walking in the City, at Abattoir. It is the artist’s first exhibition in Cleveland. The artist will be present at the opening reception and a text by Michelle Grabner will accompany the exhibition.
All the photographs were made between the hours of noon and 2 pm. They are urban cityscapes, made on the streets of New York, LA, New Brunswick, NJ, Berlin, Glarus, Switzerland, Zurich, Llodz, Poland, and Cala Mondrago, Mallorca, Spain, over the past few years. The Middle of the Day project began in 1994. The first series (1994-2009), toggles between New York and Berlin where the artist lives in the summer. It has occupied Miller over periods since then, and has appeared in various iterations in exhibitions and artist books.
