Curator’s Tour of Lee Miller: A Photographer at Work (1932 – 1945)

January 13, 2026 

 

We are excited to invite you to our first CASV Member Event for 2026!
Please join us for a members-only curator’s tour after hours with Polygon Gallery Curator, Elliott Ramsey of Lee Miller: A Photographer at Work (1932—1945) at The Polygon Gallery.

 

This exhibition explores one of the most intense and productive chapters in the professional life of American photographer Lee Miller. Between 1932 and 1945, Miller was a renowned portrait photographer running her own studio in New York (1932—1934), a photographer for perfume and cosmetic brands in advertising (1939—1945), and a fashion photographer and war correspondent for the British edition of Vogue (1939—1945). This short time span encompasses a rich history in which the photographer moved between and linked her various practices. Miller’s diverse professional activities and the ease with which she stepped from one context to another reveal a photographer whose work was defined primarily by its exchange and commercial value.

 

A reception will be held following the tour, featuring refreshments.

 

Space is limited; We hope you can join us!
