Turner-prize nominee comes to Cambridge This October, Cambridge-based gallery, Extraordinary Objects will launch a new exhibition celebrating the work of David Shrigley; a crude, contemporary and comical British artist, who is internationally recognised for his satirical, cartoonish ink drawings which observe everyday situations, human interactions and politics. The new exhibition, titled ‘My Artwork Is Terrible and I am A Very Bad Person’, intends to provide comic relief to visitors, celebrating the light at the end of a turbulent pandemic tunnel. Key pieces in the display will include five original acrylics on paper, including ‘Three Caps’, ‘Cream' and ‘Resist Your Urges’, as well as a selection of highly sought-after limited-edition prints, all signed by the artist, including: ‘Art Will Save The World’, ‘My Rampage Is Over’ and ‘I’ve Never Seen You’. New 2021 signed prints include: ‘I’m Sorry’ and ‘You Will Not Stop Me From Singing’. Extraodinaryobjects.co.uk
