Lives and Dies

This small book contains multitudes. It is an artefact of great beauty and power. The verbal and visual come together in a process of subscendence, to use the word coined by Arthur A. Cohen. Grief and loss remain forever the backdrop to a creative life in which the poet/painter survives and flourishes, in which his past and future merge into one Celanian 'timestead', in which Eros/Agapé and death echo each other's tune.

- Anthony Rudolf

Feelings of grief and sorrow are expressed in the captivating imagery of the paintings by David Miller.

Minimalistic shapes and colours of resonating emotional strength attract the spectator into their world with their alternating movement and stillness, their pure basic colours entering your soul instantly.

An emotional experience of an irresistible kind.

- Ester Muchawsky-Schnapper
