Guest director David Shrigley is turning Fabrica into a classroom for his latest exhibition Life Model II. The installation replaces a live model with Shrigley’s caricatured sculpture of a nine-foot-tall, naked woman as a play on the age-old tradition of life drawing. Visitors are invited to become part of the exhibition by using the materials provided to draw the model and having their artworks hung up as part of the exhibition, making the piece about participating and making an exhibition yourself. Life Model II is a follow up to the original Life Model, with which Shrigley got nominated for a Turner Prize, in which visitors were invited to draw and exhibit a similar sculpture of a naked man blinking and urinating into a bucket. David Shrigley is best known for his illustrations that satirically comment on everyday life and the animations which accompany Life Model II are a natural extension of those illustrations.
