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.
David Shrigley je umělec známý svými satirickými a často zneklidňujícími kresbami. Jeho humor pramení z ironického pohledu na všední a bizarní situace, přičemž často využívá zdánlivě neohrabaný styl kresby k zesílení komického efektu. Shrigleyho dílo, ačkoliv pracuje s různými médii, je nejvíce rozpoznatelné díky svým satirickým komiksům publikovaným v knihách a pohlednicích. Jeho umění se často vyznačuje nekonvenčním pohledem a záměrně omezenou technikou, což mu dodává jedinečný a provokativní charakter.

"Get Your Sh*t Together is the first book that exclusively features recent artwork in color by beloved British artist David Shrigley. This volume celebrates Shrigley's absurd, deadpan sensibility through both his signature drawing style and accompanying text. Organized by chapters with titles such as Stupid, Nonsense, Dirt, Fear, Paranoia, Love, and Self Delusion, this collection is sure to delight die-hard Shrigley fans and new ones alike. This is the largest-format book to date on Shrigley's prolific work, and features design details such as a ribbon marker with one of his mordant sayings printed on it, as well as hand-written, humorous essays throughout" --Amazon
