Mike Mills, born in Berkeley, California in 1966, may rightly be called a good all-rounder: So far, he has made a name for himself as a director and graphic designer. Having successfully directed commercials, short films and music videos for Yoko Ono, Air, Pulp and Zoot Woman, he made his debut in 2005 with the highly praised feature film �Thumbsucker� (featuring, among others, Keanu Reeves, Tilda Swinton and Vince Vaughn). He also became famous for his album cover designs. His repertoire includes design and music classics for artists such as Sonic Youth, Beastie Boys, Beck and Air, but also for fashion labels such as Supreme, Marc Jacobs or X-Girl. In his works, Mike Mills successfully creates a lifestyle without ever lapsing into banality or losing a sense of pretension. - Read Indepth Article at http://www.absolutearts.com | | Works from Perception by the Midwest Paint Group Sheldon Swope Museum of Art, Terra Haute, IN USA United States of America The traveling exhibition of the Midwest Paint Group titled �Works from Perception� opens on February 6 at the Sheldon Swope Museum of Art in Terra Haute, Indiana where it will run through March 14.
