About the Item
Grayson Perry
Piggy Bank, 2017
White ceramic piggy bank painted in blue and glazed, with a rubber stopper, contained in the original cardboard box.
9 × 21 × 9 cm
Grayson Perry is known for his ceramic works, including his iconic piggy banks. These piggy banks are not your typical childhood coin collectors; instead, they are intricately designed and often carry profound messages about society, politics, and culture. Each piggy bank is handcrafted by Perry and adorned with colorful and elaborate patterns, symbols, and imagery. Despite their playful appearance, these piggy banks serve as vessels for Perry's commentary on contemporary issues, such as consumerism, inequality, and the value of art. By subverting the traditional concept of the piggy bank, Perry invites viewers to reflect on the role of money in society and the deeper meanings behind material wealth. His piggy banks have become highly sought-after pieces of contemporary art, prized not only for their aesthetic appeal but also for their conceptual depth and social relevance.

Grayson Perry
Winner of the 2003 Turner Prize, Grayson Perry creates ceramics and other objects that explore diverse historical and contemporary themes. Drawn in by the beauty of his pieces, which are covered with sgraffito drawing, handwritten text and transferred photographs, viewers are met with darker subjects and narrative hints to environmental disaster and child abuse. Autobiographical references to the artist's childhood, family, and his transvestite alter ego Claire are intertwined with his political references, creating a challenging conflict between his dark themes and the rich beauty of his works.
