Description

Published on the occasion of a solo exhibition of British visual artist David Shrigley at the Caja de Burgos in 2007, this catalogue provides a window into his peculiar oeuvre, ranging from drawings and paintings to sculptures and photographs. His deliberately limited technique is especially apparent in poorly executed drawings with often crude forms, while the disquieting and darkly humorous subject matter of his works surfaces in their giving place to the abnormal. Shrigley addresses the thin, permeable barrier between public and private realms, pointing out absurdities that others might overlook. It is a comprehensive introduction to his work, with an essay by Katrina M. Brown.
