Though she was intimately connected with many of the leading figures associated with surrealism, including Max Ernst, Man Ray, and Pablo Picasso, and participated in major exhibitions of her time, Miller was also at times marginalized in the art world as a woman and as a photographer in an era when photography's status as an art form was not widely accepted. Her genre-bending work incorporated portraiture, fashion, still life, landscape, reportage, and advertising: fearless, poetic and surreal, it reveals a world of uncanny beauty and sensual ambiguity--often with a humorous edge. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Drawing on new primary research, \u003ci\u003eLee Miller\u003c\/i\u003e features essays exploring every aspect of Miller's career, from her early years in Paris, New York, and Cairo to her wartime journalism and late portraits. Additionally, the British novelist, playwright, and poet Deborah Levy offers a personal reflection on Miller and her art. Beautifully illustrated with hundreds of images, the book provides a comprehensive exploration of Lee Miller, revealing her as one of the most urgent creative voices of the twentieth century. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Published in association with Tate \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eExhibition Schedule: \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eTate Britain\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e (October 2, 2025-February 15, 2026) \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eArt Institute of Chicago\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e (August 28-December 7, 2026)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hilary Floe, Saskia Flower\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0300285469\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780300285468\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Yale University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/21\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Hilary Floe","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46927676375295,"sku":"9780300285468","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7e24ab66-4961-4f9f-9afd-0d19eade5c60.jpg?v=1749372606","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/lee-miller-hilary-floe-9780300285468","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
