“Really Good – Scarf”
White On Red Version
(Framed)
Shrigley’s sculpture Really Good was installed on Trafalgar Square’s Fourth plinth in September 2016. The bronze cast of a fist with an out-of-proportion thumbs-up was the winning commission for the FourthPlinth Project, which has been inviting artists since 1999 to make a proposal for the empty plinth, originally intended to hold an equestrian statue of William IV that was never made:
“I made a drawing of an elongated thumb that said everything is good and I wrote some text that sounded like some sort of weird political satire:
If we make this sculpture, we can make the world a better place through some kind of self–fulfilling prophecy.”
