Non-conformist snowman by Shrigley

This picture is taken from a very cool slideshow, called "The icemen cometh",  I saw at the observer art website.

They asked top artists - from Rachel Whiteread to Will Alsop - to reinvent the snowman...
My favorite one is from the scottish artist David Shrigley, he is such multi talent.
see the whole slide show here

David Shrigley: 'A few years ago I went to St Moritz in Switzerland. I decided to build a non-conformist snowman. When the art collector who owned the hotel saw it he became very excited that I had created an artwork in the grounds of his hotel. I had to explain that it was not an artwork - it was just a snowman. It’s an easy mistake to make'
