Etat : Gut. Ca. 200 S.; durchgeh. illustriert; 20 cm; kart. Gutes Ex. - Englisch. - David Shrigley (* 17. September 1968 in Macclesfield) ist ein britischer Künstler. Er lebt und arbeitet in Glasgow. Shrigleys Werk umfasst Skulpturen, Gemälde, Animationen, Texte und Fotografien, am bekanntesten sind aber wohl seine gezeichneten Cartoons, die sowohl in Büchern als auch in Form von Postkarten veröffentlicht werden. Vor allem für seine Zeichnungen wählt Shrigley oft einen Stil, der sich durch seine begrenzte Technik auszeichnet und an Vertreter der Art Brut erinnert. So wirken seine Werke durch ihre einfachen Formen, wiederholte Rechtschreibfehler und Durchstreichungen oft unfertig oder nicht professionell ausgearbeitet. Dies ist aber eher als ein bewusst gewähltes Stilmittel denn als Stümperei zu werten und unterstreicht den komischen Effekt, den Shrigleys Arbeiten mit ihrer schwarzhumorigen Schilderung bizarrer und absurder Situationen und Figuren oft erzielen. . (wiki) // . And his work is funny - very funny; his timing is devastatingly effective while being curiously non-Euclidean (the punch line is located in a separate dimension to the setup, never alongside). Only Shrigley can pull off such rapid-fire combinations: if the profound fist don't get you, the prosaic one will; only Shrigley can produce effective social commentary using doodles of men down holes: 'It's great down here. I'm really enjoying myself, 'Yes. It's great to be away from our wives'. We could get more elevated . . . let's. Like others of his contemporaries - Simon Patterson's The Great Bear comes to mind - Shrigley is preoccupied by the uncertainty implied in the act of mapping, rather than its technical ability to reduce the large-scale to the intelligible. Shrigley's maps and plans reveal an endemic predisposition on our part to mislabelling: we do not know the names of our own parts, let alone the parts of anything else. Worse still, even the words we use for the legends of these maps and plans are misspelled and misunderstood; they too, if looked at closely enough, are exposed as not denotative but diagrammatic - they are themselves wonky little word maps with their own misspelled legends. Thus, Shrigley takes the picture theory of meaning espoused by Wittgenstein's Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, balls it up and chucks it in the general direction of the bin. For Shrigley, consciousness can never be explained; it is always deranged, and the things that people do - especially the making of artworks - are monstrous in their complaisant acceptance of this derangement.
