David Shrigley has become one of the most recognisable and collectable contemporary British artists of his generation. His distinctive hand-drawn style, deadpan humour, absurdist observations and instantly recognisable text-based works have established a broad international collector base.
While Shrigley's original drawings and paintings continue to attract significant interest, his prints and editions have developed an active and accessible secondary market. Limited-edition screenprints, sculptures and multiples allow collectors to own his work at a range of price points, while rare and sought-after editions can attract considerable specialist interest.
Whether you are considering selling a single David Shrigley print, an Artist's Proof, sculpture, original drawing, painting or an established collection, our specialist consignments team can provide a complimentary valuation and guide you through every stage of the selling process.
Why David Shrigley Remains One of the UK's Most Collectable Contemporary Artists
Few contemporary artists have developed such a distinctive visual language as David Shrigley.
His combination of humour, absurdity, social observation and deceptively simple drawing has helped his work transcend traditional art-world boundaries. His imagery can be immediately understood while often rewarding closer consideration, giving his work a distinctive appeal among both new and experienced collectors.
Shrigley's growing international reputation has been supported by major exhibitions, institutional recognition, gallery representation and an increasingly established secondary market.
His prints and editions are particularly important to the market. The breadth of Shrigley's editioned work has created opportunities for collectors at different levels, while particularly desirable examples can attract strong competition when they become available.
Collectors are often drawn to works featuring Shrigley's characteristic handwritten text, animals, figures and humorous observations. His ability to turn everyday situations into memorable visual statements has made many of his editions instantly recognisable.
David Shrigley Market & Collector Demand
The David Shrigley market has developed significantly over the past decade, with continued interest in his prints, editions, sculptures and original works.
As with any contemporary artist, demand varies between individual works. Collectors can be particularly selective about edition size, rarity, condition, provenance, subject matter and the significance of a particular work within Shrigley's wider practice.
Some of his best-known editions, including My Rampage Is Over, Untitled (I Am Listening), Be Nice, Live Each Day As If It Were Your First and A Gap In The Clouds, have become particularly recognisable among collectors.
Rare examples, early editions and Artist's Proofs can also attract specialist attention.
For sellers, this means that an individual Shrigley artwork should be assessed on its own characteristics rather than relying solely on general auction averages or previous release prices.

What Determines the Value of a David Shrigley Artwork?
If you are looking to sell a David Shrigley print or artwork, several factors can influence its value and marketability.
Edition & Rarity
Edition size and availability can have a significant influence on collector demand. Sold-out and scarce editions can attract particular interest when they become available on the secondary market.
Condition
The condition of a print, sculpture or original artwork is an important part of any valuation. Paper condition, fading, creasing, damage and other imperfections can affect marketability. Read our guide on condition here.
Original or Editioned Work
Shrigley's market encompasses screenprints, multiples, sculptures, drawings, paintings and unique works. The medium and nature of the work are therefore important when establishing its market position.
Provenance
Original purchase documentation, gallery invoices and other provenance can provide useful information about an artwork's history and can offer additional confidence to prospective buyers.
Read our guide on Provenance here.
Artist's Proofs & Rare Examples
Artist's Proofs and other scarce examples can be particularly interesting to specialist collectors. The desirability of an AP will depend on the individual work, edition and wider market.
Subject Matter
Certain recurring elements of Shrigley's practice—including his text-based works, animals, figures and distinctive humorous drawings—have become particularly recognisable among collectors.
For these reasons, an individual valuation is generally more useful than relying on a broad average for "David Shrigley prints".
