    David Shrigley
    Brain Activity
    Jun 22, 2012 – Sep 23, 2012
    Main Galleries

    The work of David Shrigley effortlessly infuses a comedic sensibility into a serious fine art practice. David Shrigley: Brain Activity showcases the diversity of the artist’s work — amateurish, crude drawings, hand-crafted sculptures made of unusual materials, and installations characterized by incongruities of scale — offering insightful and often surreal commentary on the absurdities of life, death and everything in between. Irreverent and mischievous, Shrigley’s art presents the kind of odd scenarios you never come across in real life, but wish you did.

    By Julie Moggan
    Every four seconds a Harlequin Mills & Boon romance novel is sold, giving hope to readers throughout the world—an Indian woman pining for her straying husband, a Japanese housewife yearning for her handsome ballroom dancing teacher, and a British mother-of-three aiming to spice up her marriage. The film does not only follow female readers: model Stephen has graced over 200 book covers but can’t find his true love, while Roger, a pensioner in Northern England, writes romance novels under the pseudonym “Gill Sanderson.” Guilty Pleasures explores our universal struggle to reconcile inner fantasy with the tragicomic truths of real-life relationships. (2010, 85 min, digital)
