Ha ha ha ha, that's really funny. What an amazing talent this guy is. Hilarious....reasonable price too. How he comes up with these side splitting jokes is beyond me.

 I agree, the image looks like a shopping bag abit of silver and yellow paint on a panel with a simple penguin logo and lettra set lettring.

 A gimmicky slogan and it's decorative enough in it's own way but how many people would get bored seeing that slogan on their wall and the novelty factor wearing off very quickly.

   Just like Shrigley etc anyone and their dog can come up with lots of simple slogans and selling them as fine art to a pretentious investment clique who persuade themselves the art is high brow or special simply because a gallery has pushed up the retail prices by some clever sales pitch probably someting like Warhol warhol warhol warhol elvis elvis elvis Miller Miller Miller miller.

  Cheap at 20K buy no sell tomorrow for 40K take a selfie wearing lifetstyle food 

I don't know about other people but I think many of his as you put it "gimmicky slogans" are quite reflective and have place in the world of art and life for that matter. For instance "Love Saves the Day" great. "Fuck Art Let's Dance" and "Fuck Dancing Let's Fuck" great, among others.  His latest release I find quite funny as there are many times in life awesome things happen but the fact is you can't be everywhere and most of the time you can't plan when great things are going to happen anyways. Personally, I would never be bored with his latest hanging on my wall. It is very well done and would be a reminder to just stay cool and accept the contentment with my own existence and the realization that I don't have to be everywhere even if history is being made. Additionally, for those with a little imagination many of his pieces can be incorporated with other pieces (whether more of his or other artists) to create a statement piece. I wish I could afford one of his prints but I harbor no ill will to anyone who can. For now I will just be content with one of his show posters incorporated with a few Pure Evil's to remind me that everything isn't always what it portrayed to be. I also like this poster because at the bottom it does have the "gimmicky slogan" of his latest release, so it's really a two for one.

 I guess it's like Marmite. Some might buy a Miller print in order to impress their dinner party guests regarding the price and others for other reasons.

   I was thinking of collecting pan handlers signs as a lot are very clever and witty and who knows if any of the professional pan handlers hit the big time in the future, the signs might be a good investment.  I think maybe an exhibition of pan handler signs Lazarides style and pop some in sale rooms to big up their prices and some favourable articles (paid for) in art journals etc, could create the next big thing.

Has the price been confirmed yet?

Tiered pricing so it varies.

[corinthia]

At Art Basel apparently they were £12k for small & £16k for the large. I have no idea what they are going for now. Or what they ended at if they are all sold.

[skynet]

Absolutely stunning in the flesh. Manifold and Paragon always produce the absolute highest quality works. Classic Harland Miller on a lovely yellow color with metallic finishing justify an easy purchase.

I think this release will set the new standard to compare other Miller prints against in terms of quality and finishing.

large is 18k gbp plus vat now

[jluhiex]

Is tier 1 on the small 12k? With or without VAT?

My understanding is 12k does not include vat and is not first tier (12k + vat).

nice. Must be sold out now, 20k +VAT?

I believe so.... or more so they have more requests for it than prints so are saying they're all sold until they sort themselves out.

Happiness was also described as having hand colouring but was applied by the printers rather than the artist. Would imagine that’s also the case here but I could be wrong.

Yes. Only differentiating between the large and the small...if the extra size and hand coloring is worth the 8k difference.

[corinthia]

The small Happiness has the hand finish as well. Pretty sure the only difference between these new prints (small & large) is the size and price.

Did Paragon on the large? On the Happiness print it wasn’t advertised with this either.

Nope it says An etching with blockprinting. Either way it is extremely nice. The quality and printing process looks amazing. I can’t wait to actually see the print.
