Pop artist David Shrigley's work is immediate, sometimes rude, and very funny, 'like a psychotic version of Matt Groening's 'Life in Hell' cartoons' ( The Guardian). His darkly brilliant, addictively hilarious scrawls from the subconscious have already made him a star in the UK, with a growing legion of fans around the globe. The Book of Shrigley is the most extensive and the first widely available showcase of his edgy but accessible off-kilter vision. Here are bad-tempered pets, strange attractions, work, S-E-X, knitting, wrestling, and a host of other everyday activities, dangers, and amusements laid bare in Shrigley's urgently illustrated panels and wickedly mischievous punch lines. Made up of almost entirely new work and bursting with color and unsettlingly funny truths, The Book of Shrigley is the ideal introduction to this comic genius and the book fans have been waiting for.
David Shrigley has participated in numerous exhibits throughout Europe, the U.S., and Australia. He has also animated music videos for the British band Blur and others. He lives and works in Glasgow, Scotland.

Trade Paperback. Etat : Used - Very Good. David Shrigley is the quickest, smartest artist-satirist of a brilliant generation. IN THE BEGINNING was the world and an innocent young Shrigley made drawings of it in his sketchbooks. Sometimes he added words to the drawings. Sometimes he just wrote words. And the world he draws is dark indeed - but funny and true. True about such things as the vanity of human wishes, the certainty of night, the bad temper of pets and the strangeness of love. Not the whole truth, maybe. But true enough to make you uncomfortable, and to make you laugh out loud when you're not wincing. THE BOOK OF SHRIGLEY contains over 150 new drawings, sketchbook entries from student days, sad and funny ephemera, and texts that illuminate his work with a sideways light. David Shrigley is the author of numerous cult bestsellers including Human Achievement and Why We Got the Sack from the Museum. A celebrated artist, he has exhibited his work all over the world. Very nice clean, tight copy free of any marks. N° de réf. du vendeur 312243
