the intresting debate and art work
http://www.theartnewspaper.com/articles/Flavin+and+Viola+light+works+ruled+%e2%80%9cnot+art%e2%80%9d/22069
this is the website with the debate on it. and i must say it is an intresting read about how people classify art. and i think that is can relate to my own work.
i does relate to my FMP the question 'What is Sculpture' and how do you classify it as a sculpture and not an ornament or an modle soo it does have some relation to my work.
i do hope i like the read and i hope you can answer my question or just think about it. thank you :)

soo i am going to play with structure and chaos and do my thing.
but i have now been told that it has to be done on the mac's i gess this is good but i really wanted to work with my hand and not on a mac. i gess this is because i like to build thing and make stuff with my hands.oo well i will do what i am told.
the mac verson of the front cover of my work look really intresting and has alot goin on within it. soo it is coming along good.
we have been told to get are hand dirty now. well dave didn't say get your hands dirty it was more along the lines of ok we need to make a small modle of that our idea is. but i like the way i said it ' time to get your hands dirty'. i am making sence from my dreams soo that is goin to be fun and messy woop woop i like both of tho's things.

alternative miss world
on alternative miss world i am looking in to andrew logan and man who first started the alternative miss world. soo i hope that this will help me go though and do my own work.
http://andrewlogan.com/amw/
it is a very intresting website and i like how he is a cross between male and female it is really intresting to me. now i am lookin in to the history of it and what thing it has done in the past.
http://amw.andrewlogan.com/#/history
well they all look intrtesting i i think i will be getting a few ideas from these over events and theames. i thing i will look in to what the AMW is all about.
What is the Alternative Miss World?Started in 1972, The Alternative Miss World is not about beauty - it's about transformation - and when it comes to costume absolutely anything goes. Like the real Miss World there is day wear, swim-wear and evening wear and the all important personality interview! But Logan refuses to let anyone rehearse, and anything can - and often does - happen.It's about creative free-reign, about the ordinary becoming extraordinary. Contestants over the years have been famous and infamous, celebrated and unknown, a parade of freaks, fops, show offs and drag queens... including Andrew's many friends and family! The climax is a tear stained coronation with Logan's dazzling Crown Jewels made of broken mirrors.
well i gess i found it.
and this website helps me alot with my research.

Marc Quinn’s Alison Lapper Pregnant:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alison_Lapper
Alison Lapper MBE (born 7 April 1965 in Burton upon Trent, Staffordshire[1]) is an English artist who was born without arms. She is the subject of the sculpture Alison Lapper Pregnant, which was on display in Trafalgar Square until late 2007.
http://www.culture24.org.uk/art/sculpture%20%26%20installation/art30597
The latest artwork to grace the fourth plinth in Trafalgar Square was unveiled on September 15 at a public ceremony attended by the artist Marc Quinn and his subject, Alison Lapper.
The sculpture now sitting on the plinth is a three-and-a-half metre-high representation of disabled artist Alison Lapper when she was eight months pregnant. Alison Lapper Pregnant was chosen from a shortlist of six in March 2004, and will remain in position for 18 months.
“Marc Quinn has created an artwork that is a potent symbol and is a great addition to London,” said the Mayor of London, Ken Livingstone, who endorsed and unveiled the sculpture. “It is a work about courage, beauty and defiance, which both captures and represents all that is best about our great city. Alison Lapper pregnant is a modern heroine – strong, formidable and full of hope. It is a great work of art for London and for the world.”

Thomas Schütte’s Model for a Hotel:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Sch%C3%BCtte
Thomas Schütte (born November 16, 1954, Oldenburg, Germany) is a German contemporary artist. From 1973 to 1981 he studied art at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf alongside Katharina Fritsch under Gerhard Richter, Fritz Schwegler, and Benjamin Buchloh.[1] He lives and works in Düsseldorf.
http://www.artrabbit.com/uk/features/features/november_2007/4th_plinth
German sculptor Thomas Schütte 's Model for a Hotel 2007 has launched on Trafalgar Square's fourth plinth. The fourth plinth was constructed in 1841 to house a statue of King William IV, which was never created due to a lack of funds. The Fourth Plinth Programme was launched to introduce contemporary art to Trafalgar Square on the vacant plinth in a rolling programme of new commissions. The scheme was initiated in 1998 by the Royal Society for the encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce. In 1999 responsibility for Trafalgar Square. Schütte’s new installation replaces Marc Quinn's sculpture, Alison Lapper Pregnant, which was unveiled in 2005
http://www.guardian.co.uk/artanddesign/2007/nov/08/art
'Birdshit is an interesting technical question," Thomas Schütte suddenly announces as we sit talking in his Düsseldorf apartment, "I think they're going to clean it off once a week." The artist's Model for a Hotel was unveiled on the fourth plinth in Trafalgar Square yesterday, but when his maquette for the sculpture was first shown in 2003, it was called Hotel for the Birds. Perhaps London mayor Ken Livingstone, at war with the feral pigeon, thought the original title might encourage them and had it changed. "For the birds themselves the sculpture is a real hotel," Schütte explains. "I heard about the scheme to get rid of them. I don't want to interfere. But 'for the birds' is just an expression. The droppings will inevitably be there, along with the wind and rain and the buildings around the square."
Yinka Shonibare’s Nelson’s Ship in a Bottle:
http://www.yinkashonibarembe.com/present.html
The next commission for the Fourth Plinth, Nelson's Ship in a Bottle, by leading Anglo-Nigerian artist Yinka Shonibare will be unveiled in Trafalgar Square on the morning of Monday 24 May 2010.
Commissioned by the Mayor of London and supported by Arts Council England with sponsorship from Guaranty Trust Bank of Nigeria, Nelson's Ship in a Bottle is a scale replica of HMS Victory in a giant bottle.
The artwork will be the first commission on the Fourth Plinth to reflect specifically on the historical symbolism of Trafalgar Square, which commemorates the Battle of Trafalgar, and will link directly with Nelson’s column. It is also the first commission by a black British artist.
http://www.artknowledgenews.com/2010-25-05-00-16-15-yinka-shonibares-nelsons-ship-in-a-bottle-unveiled-in-trafalgar-square.html
LONDON.- The next commission for the Fourth Plinth is Nelson's 'Ship in a Bottle', by leading Anglo-Nigerian British artist Yinka Shonibare. This was unveiled in Trafalgar Square on Monday 24 May 2010. The artwork is the first commission on the Fourth Plinth to reflect specifically on the historical symbolism of Trafalgar Square, which commemorates the Battle of Trafalgar, and will link directly with Lord Nelson’s column. It is also the first commission by a black British artist.
The ship's 37 large sails are made of exuberant and richly patterned textiles commonly associated with African dress and symbolic of African identity and independence. The history of the fabric reveals that they were inspired by Indonesian batik design, mass produced by the Dutch and sold to the colonies in West Africa. Tying together historical and global threads and traversing Oceans and Continents, the work considers the complexity of British expansion in trade and Empire, made possible through the freedom of the seas that Nelson’s victory provided.
Yinka Shonibare says his piece will reflect the story of multiculturalism in London.
well there is a few artist that have done the fourth plinth.
