"Master of all things darkly comic . . . An excellent new book [Fully Coherent Plan] features 254 new illustrations, all drawn in his distinctive thick black pen on stark white paper, the naivety of the image offset by the scabrous, surreal or darkly comic text" - * Observer *
"For all the uneasy peculiarity of the drawings, they often capture something fundamental about the human condition . . . His mordant humour has never felt more attuned to the age . . . His world is known to us now. But he continues to invert power structures, prick egos and salute the everyday magnificently" - * Times Literary Supplement *
"Concerned about the breakdown of society? Fear not: David Shrigley has a plan . . . Shrigley points politely towards the ridiculous and arbitrary nature of the societal strictures by which we all abide and from which he seems so blissfully free" - * Esquire *
"One of the Turner Prize nominee's greatest abilities as an artist is to create resoundingly funny work while also offering wry political commentary, in a fashion that is so thoroughly bizarre that it never fails to surprise . . . Shrigley's world has something to offer everyone" - * Elephant *
"Shrigley's darkly funny illustrations reflect our surreal and disquieting times" - * The Big Issue *
"One of the cleverest, funniest conceptual artists . . . Genius" - * Guardian *
"PRAISE FOR DAVID SHRIGLEY: The best gift book, for a crazy person you really, really like" - * New York Times *
