“David Shrigley is probably the funniest gallery-type artist who ever lives”
Dave Eggers
“On the kink of his line Shrigley can shift effortlessly from pathos to paranoia. And his work is funny - very funny; his timing devastatingly effective”
Will Self
“Excellent … There’s more to Shrigley than his knowing nods to high art”
guardian, On Brain Activity, At The Hayward Gallery
“Shrigley deserves his immense popularity. For almost 20 years he has produced a ceaseless stream of ideas, observations, jokes and strange insights in the form of left-field drawings that have appeared in broadsheet newspapers, books and magazines as well as galleries. Deadpan, escapist and distinctively cack-handed, they make up a little world in themselves”
