Reviews for How Are You Feeling?: At the Centre of the Inside of The Human Brain’s Mind
Funny and profound and surprising all at the same time
Harry Hill 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
Observer
Simultaneously unsettling and humorous
Designboom, on Brain Activity, at the Hayward Gallery
Shrigley mines a mordant, scatological seam, conjuring up the dark tradition of British humour that threw up Tony Hancock and Chris Morris.
The Times
[A] master of modern surrealism.
Evening Standard
With a casual gesture Shrigley points to that hideous shape whose name I've never known - and then he names it. And the name is profoundly, embarrassingly familiar. I'm laughing while frantically searching for a pen, so desperate to capture the feeling he has unearthed in me.
Miranda July A must for fans of the absurd.
