In memory of Donald R Miller II Fine Art, who passed on two years ago today, I will be adding some photos of the beautiful, funny, gut-wrenching, and revolutionary things that he created. I am starting with the original Contemporary Arts Project Gallery in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio in 1996 and 1997. There is more to come. I hope you will enjoy the ride. Sandra Holata Diehl

A.R.M.
Artists Resisting Mindlessness
Declaration of independent cultural resistance.
1. A.R.M. is not an organization, institution, or corporate political entity and is not controlled by any organization, institution, or corporate political entity, is not open for membership, does not accept dues is neither for profit or non- profit and does not operate under a generic set of governmental bylaws.
2. A.R.M. first and foremost is a piece of conceptual art created by two philosophically similar artists to serve their environmental/sociological /political agendas and independent intellectual cultural aesthetic.
3. A.R.M. represents preservation and continuum of intellectual culture and stands in opposition to destructive capitalist economics, technological cognitive numbness,
unnecessary utilization of violence and fear as a form of political/psychological persuasion and oppression, destruction of the environment, promotion of repressive politically correct social contracts, mass standardization and homogenization of the human animal being, corporate monopolization of the American/world consumer landscape, the institutionalizing, commercializing and sanitizing of fine art and culture and the constant propagation of popular culture by the mass media on society as its culture.
4. A.R.M. is animal rights and environment.
5. A.R.M. is action and metamorphic.
6. A.R.M. is paradox.
7. A.R.M. is.
A.R.M. proudly supports these comrades in advocacy:
National Anti-Vivisection Society, Natural Resource Defense Council, Defenders of Wildlife, Nature Conservancy, National Geographic Society, Arbor Day Foundation, National Wildlife Federation, and Ohio Environmental Council
Protect and serve the Great Mother
Stop animal cruelty

Peer inside legendary East Village artist Kiki Smith’s home and studio ahead of exhibitions at New York’s Pace Gallery and the Deste Foundation in Greece.
Holzer’s series, posters featuring provocative text from sources like Hi**er and Trotsky, continues to prompt the public discourse it set out to in the late 1970s.
In the late 1970s, Walter De Maria made art history with a simple, bold gesture. Here’s the dirt on a famous roomful of soil.

Self-taught, Harry Callahan began taking photographs as a hobby at age twenty-six but went on to become one of the most influential American artists and teachers of the medium. Acknowledged for his innovative contributions to the development of art photography, Callahan spent six decades examining the camera’s formal and expressive possibilities.
When shooting urban and natural environments, the artist freely experimented with abstraction and in-camera manipulation, particularly multiple exposures. City life is shown to be crowded and hectic yet isolating. Nature is often seen close up, so that single stalks against a blank background become graphic rather than documentary images. In such works Callahan, like many painters of his time, acknowledges the flatness of the surface on which the image appears.
Harry Callahan, Peeling paint and paper, c. 1977 (printed 1980-81), dye transfer print, 8 11/16 in. x 13 7/8 in. Collection of the Akron Art Museum. Gift of Soraya Betterton. Find out more about Harry Callahan and this photograph tomorrow evening during the Free, curator-led gallery tour of PULP: http://on.fb.me/1R1bmf5
