In den WarenkorbWoodcut, 2005, on wove paper, signed with initials, dated and numbered from the edition of 20 in pencil, published by Galleri Nicolai Wallner, Copenhagen, 59.7 x 39.7 cm. (23.5 x 15.6 in.) "I'm actually trying to make things that are accessible and enjoyable to others," Shrigley has said. Like a compulsive doodler with an infect…iously mordant sense of humor, the Glasgow-based artist makes deceptively simple-looking drawings and, to a lesser extent, paintings. Complete with childlike stick figures and crudely scrawled texts, they speak to the paranoid fantasies and everyday pathos of adulthood. Shrigley, who is highly prolific, has compiled many of his images into artist's books and other printed formats that can circulate to large audiencesâ"such as series of etchings and, most recently, these woodcuts. "I liked the physicality of cutting the [wood] plates," the artist has said. "It was very brutal and slightly haphazard, perhaps a little crude, which I think makes the images sit comfortably alongside my drawings." Publication excerpt from The Museum of Modern Art, MoMA Highlights since 1980, New York: The Museum of Modern Art, 2007, p. 247.
