New translation, the Magna Carta

  the modern age - no ability needed, or wanted

‘The artiste speaks’:

“Through elevation onto the plinth and removal from common ground, the body becomes a metaphor, a symbol and allows us to reflect on the diversity, vulnerability and particularity of the individual in contemporary society.

A.N. Other ‘artiste’ speaks:

“For me it's a celebration of London's immense ethnic wealth, giving expression to and honouring the many cultures and ethnicities that are still breathing precious wind into the sails of the UK.”

And what are they going on about?

“More than 2,400 people will occupy Trafalgar Square's fourth plinth over 100 days as part of a living artwork.”

One hour of ‘fame’ each 24 hours a day.
Don’t just stand there!

Uhhh urrrrhh - perhaps it’s better you do just stand there.

Yet another inspiring British achievement.

How painful is the society of sheep.
