UK artist Grayson Perry indulges playful side in new show
- Grayson Perry, a UK artist known for his colorful art, is exhibiting 40 new works at the Wallace Collection in London from March 28, titled 'Delusions of Grandeur.'
- Perry invented an alter ego, Shirley Smith, to create art inspired by the Wallace Collection, saying, 'I think that... As an artist, you've got to give yourself permission to play.'
- The exhibition features a mix of sculptures, tapestries, drawings, and ceramics, with one piece called 'Fascist Swing' that critiques artists who misuse the term 'fascist.'
- Director Xavier Bray noted that Perry is 'having fun creating things' by using modern techniques like artificial intelligence and various materials in his artistic process.
