Harland Miller
Harland Miller is a British artist and novelist, born in 1964, in Yorkshire, England. He is best known for his satirical paintings of re-imagined Penguin classics, often with his invented sardonic titles. He takes artistic influence from Ed Ruscha, Anselm Kiefer and Robert Rauschenberg and cites Mark Rothko as one of his favorite artists. He attended the Chelsea College of Art, in London, from where he received his BA and MA degrees, after which he traveled extensively, living in New York, New Orleans, Paris and Berlin. Miller first achieved critical acclaim with his writing. His debut novel, Slow down Arthur, Stick to Thirty (2000), featured a kid who travels around northern England, with a David Bowie impersonator. In the same year, Miller published the novella, First I was Afraid, I was Petrified, based on the true story of a female relative with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. In 2001, Miller produced the first of a series of paintings, based on the dust jackets of old Penguin books. He was struck by the visceral nostalgia that the book covers, rather than their contents, evoked.

- Richard Prince, The Greeting Card Jokes #1: The Fireman, 2011By Richard PrinceLocated in London, GBRichard Prince, The Greeting Card Jokes #1: The Fireman, 2011 As new condition, never framed or displayed. Hand signed and numbered by the artist, verso. Private collection (UK). Signed and numbered by artist in ink on interior of card. From a limited edition of 100. 6.25 x 8.5 in (15.9 x 21.6 cm) Notes: Incorporating jokes reflective of the “borscht belt” humor prevalent in the 1950's, Prince's Joke works tap into social preoccupations of the national subconscious. Prior to Prince's use of the jokes, many had infiltrated popular culture, gradually losing their original authors to become adopted by a largely oral tradition. Beginning in 1984, Richard Prince began assembling one-line gag cartoons and ‘borscht belt’ jokes from the 1950's which he redrew onto small pieces of paper. "Artists were casting sculptures in bronze, making huge paintings, talking about prices and clothes and cars and spending vast amounts of money. So I wrote jokes on little pieces of paper and sold them for $10 each". Following the hand-written jokes and subsequent works in which cartoon images were silk-screened onto canvas, in 1987 Prince adopted a more radical, formulaic strategy of mechanically reproducing classic one liners and gags onto a flat monochrome canvas. Richard Prince's work has been among the most innovative art produced in the United States during the past 30 years. His deceptively simple act in 1977 of rephotographing advertising images and presenting them as his own ushered in an entirely new, critical approach to art-making — one that questioned notions of originality and the privileged status of the unique aesthetic object. Prince's technique involves appropriation; he pilfers freely from the vast image bank of popular culture to create works that simultaneously embrace and critique a quintessentially American sensibility: the Marlboro Man...Category
