Meaning & Analysis
Hate’s Outta Date! is one of the more uplifting prints from Harland Miller’s Penguin series (2001-), inspired by the cover designs of Vintage Penguin Classics. Miller, who’s multidisciplinary practice has a strong element of text and literature, dissects the relationship between text and image through inserting his own clever, satirical titles onto the authentically replicated dust jackets. Miller’s choice of colour is highly significant in this body of work, inspired by the original Penguin format itself. Through embedding his evocative titles, occasionally dealing with heavy or controversial topics such as death, politics, drugs, sex etc., into certain colour fields, he aims to manipulate the meaning of language, the viewer’s emotions and their reception of the work.
Hate’s Outta Date! features the trademark Penguin logo. Miller’s use of a bright mustard-yellow gives his invented title a more light-hearted, positive. Through working with layers of paint on the original cover’s high-resolution digital photograph, the resulting painting mimics the rugged look of a used book, as seen transferred onto this print.
In this exploration of text, image and form, Miller draws on a range of artistic influences from Abstract Expressionism, Colour Field and Pop Art movements, especially Master Colourist Mark Rothko. The message of this print, Hate’s Outta Date! strikes as especially powerful in that the universality of its meaning is cleverly reiterated by that of its context in the form of the widely known and loved Penguin classics.
