David Shrigley
David Shrigley is a British artist whose drawing style evolved as a reaction to the seriousness of the art he was expected to produce at art school. His drawings have a kind of throwaway beauty featuring monster children, idiots, aliens and bad parents. Full of twisted lists and exchanges, Shrigley is a favourite for his angst about modern living, his everyday disappointments and his endless cynicism. He holds onto the things that surprise him and make him laugh and as a result us as well.
