The Miller Art Museum will open their new exhibit “Abstractions: Seven Artists – Seven Views” on Saturday, March 5 with a reception to meet the artists from 3 – 4:30 pm.

The exhibit will feature a diverse group of Midwestern artists working in a variety of media, including painters Derrick Buisch of Madison, Emmett Johns of Fish Creek and Albuquerque, NM, Kristi Roenning of Sturgeon Bay, and Olivia Schreiner of Chicago. Printmaker Bonnie de Arteaga of Brillion will display both fine art prints and sculpture, photographer Scott Edwards of Neenah will display black and white silver gelatin prints, and mixed media artist Marjorie Mau of Green Bay will display drawings.
