Rendered in luminous shades of yellow, Harland Miller’s “Hate’s Outta Date (Yellow)” transforms the familiar format of a vintage paperback into a bold statement on language, humor and contemporary culture. The title fills the composition in sweeping black lettering, while a small penguin anchors the lower portion of the print. Layered areas of yellow, cream and pale violet give the surface a painted, timeworn quality, bringing warmth and texture to its otherwise graphic presentation.

Miller is internationally recognized for works that combine the visual language of classic book covers with invented titles that are sharp, playful and often unexpectedly poignant. “Hate’s Outta Date” is among the artist’s most direct and memorable phrases, carrying an optimistic message without losing the dry wit that defines his practice. At nearly 40 inches tall, the print has a strong presence while remaining highly versatile in scale.

Created in 2022, “Hate’s Outta Date (Yellow)” is a hand-signed and numbered screenprint in colors on wove paper. Measuring 39.4 x 27.6 inches, it was produced in a limited edition of 125.
