MODERN ARTIFACTS 2: “DEAR MISS MILLER…” Introduction by Michelle Elligott For the second installment in our series highlighting selections from the archives of the Museum of Modern Art, archivist Michelle Elligott offers correspondence between the artist James Lee Byars and MoMA curator Dorothy C. Miller. The letters not only document the facinating relationship between Byars and Miller, but serve as artifacts of the ideas and modes of expression Byars worked through during a decade abroad in Japan. Michelle Elligott has been Museum Archivist at New York’s Museum of Modern Art for the past 11 years. She coedited Art in Our Time: A Chronicle of The Museum of Modern Art, has published and lectured widely, and was recently a Fulbright Senior Scholar in Athens, Greece.
