The Fourth Plinth

I thought it was ugly at first. While it's not my favourite fourth plinth resident, Alison Lapper pregnant is bold and beautiful.

And it's got the country talking about art, which is always a good thing. The next big unveiling is Rachel Whiteread's take on Tate Modern's Turbine Hall. Since she's the artist who won the first - and only - K Foundation Award for the worst piece of British art it should be interesting.
