Mac, I wrote about Millet's show in April '99 at Robert Mann Gallery, NYC,
in Post-factory #3, page 24 (for some reason, probably space, I omitted it
from the table of contents).

Quote:

"The prints are toned 'with walnut stain from his grandfather's orchard,
as well as with tea, coffee, and selenium.'" As I recall, the interior
quotes are from the gallery press release.

It's interesting that you mention his name now, since I just got
announcement of his new show, which will be Sept 12 to Oct 26. Judging by
what's pictured, it's drawing and collage, little if any photo--- looking
charming witty inventive, but from the card anyway less compelling than I
found the photo works. (Tho on 2nd thought, not fair to judge from just
announcement. I take that back.)
