Artistic

I'm afraid I can't get very enthusiastic about the "empty plinth" in Trafalgar Square.

 

It has been an open-air venue for various artistic endeavours, although to me they seem to be alternating stunts, gimmicks and self-indulgent trash.

 

Yinka Shonibare' ship in a bottle seems a particularly asinine piece of work.  Has public money been spent on this?  If so, how much?
