Since 1985, Gerold Miller (b. Althausen, Baden-Württemberg, 1961; lives and works in Berlin) has created formally reduced objects made of metal and lacquer to explore the boundaries between picture, sculpture, and architecture. He studies the fine line where space is transformed into surface and representation turns into abstraction. The artist’s characteristic wall objects are modern descendants of Tatlin’s counter-reliefs, which aimed to fuse painting, sculpture, and architectonic space. As flat wall-mounted sculptures, Miller’s works frame a new conception of visual representation. The present book is a catalogue raisonné, the first to offer comprehensive documentation of Gerold Miller’s complete works created between 1985 and 2011. Includes essays by Edelbert Köb and Barbara Jenner and a series of photographs Oliver Mark.

What is a picture? How does a picture relate to the wall, to space, to architecture? German artist Gerold Miller has devoted himself for about fifteen years to the question of "pictoral quality," creating a border territory of sculpture and painting. Deriving from Concrete Art and Minimal Art, Millers frame pictures are purely counter-illusionistic and counter-representational. Organized spatially, they gain signi-ficance in relation to the different spaces around them, for example in the empty space of a museum.The book accompanies an exhi-bition of the Nationalgalerie im Hamburger Bahnhof, Museum für Gegenwart, Berlin. (2002)The Daimler-Chrysler Collection presents Gerold Miller’s works at large, and will be on display in the Detroit Institute of Arts from November 7, 2003–January 18, 2004.
