David Shrigley Boeken
David Shrigley is een kunstenaar die gevierd wordt om zijn duister humoristische en vaak verontrustende cartoons. Zijn werk vindt humor in het alledaagse, het onbeduidende en het bizarre, waarbij hij vaak een bewust onbehouwen en schijnbaar onafgewerkte tekenstijl hanteert om het komische effect te versterken. Hoewel hij in verschillende media werkt, is Shrigley het best bekend om zijn bijtende cartoons, die vaak worden verzameld in boeken en ansichtkaarten. Zijn kunst kenmerkt zich door een eigenaardig perspectief en een onderscheidende, soms bewust beperkte, techniek die zijn werk een unieke en provocerende rand geeft.
