David Shrigley & Anton Kern
Hosted by Zefrey Throwell
Originally aired 10/22/10

As the starting bell for the fall 2010 season sounded, host Zefrey Throwell happened to swing by a delightfully mischievous show at Anton Kern Gallery, and who should be showing but the talented, the unholy, the pithy, the nimble Scot himself... David Shrigley. From mounted crooked fingers on the wall, to a robot bludgeoning a baby seal, to a long plinth of huge ceramic black boots, Shrigley's fourth show with Kern is a winner (through Oct. 30, 2010). Listen along as they suss out such heated topics as yoga balls, saddle chairs, hating children (except for one lucky child, Linus), how to get a gallery in NYC and of course no interview is complete without an in-depth investigation of the deadly Glasgow Smile.
