The Book Of Shrigley
Edité par Redstone Press - 2005
"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 feel 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.
