David Shrigley (b.1968) Pulped Fiction (Nineteen Eighty-Four) The book, 2023, comprising one screenprint and the screenprinted dust jacket, with title-page, text and justification, this copy initialled and dated in pencil, numbered from the first 250 in the edition of 1250, the print also initialled, dated and numbered in pencil verso, co-printed by Aquatint and Jealous Print Studio, published by Shrig Books, London, overall 265 x 210mm (10 3/8 x 8 1/4in) In 2017, a charity shop in Swansea made headlines after exhibiting several hundred copies of Dan Brown's 'The Da Vinci Code' in their window with a sign asking people to stop donating copies. Despite 'The Da Vinci Code' being one of the best-selling novels of all-time, the charity shop was hardly able to re-sell any of the books. This inspired Shrigley who embarked on a project to turn these unwanted copies into a new edition of George Orwell's 'Nineteen Eighty-Four'. The artist asks us to re-focus on Orwell's dystopian novel, which tells the story of Winston Smith, a party member who rebels but ultimately submits to an oppressive regime. Shrigley notes 'This novel is as relevant today as when it was first published in 1950'.
