Picture it, you're Olafur Eliasson and you've just been handed the daunting prospect of filling the massive, massive Turbine Hall with a piece of art. A huge, cavernous space.
So what's the first thing he does?
Fits a mirror across the entire ceiling, and makes the space twice as big.
Outstanding!

I saw that thing in the Turbine Hall yesterday. I thought it was rubbish, as a lot of the stuff there is. I did like the Sun, I thought was was clever, and I did like the beds thing representing transport, but I thought the Spider was rubbish. And as for that gormless Gormley who insists on inflicting upon an innocent public representations of himself again and again and again, well! And that Chinese bloke with the sunflower seeds made by other people, who, it turned out, had been individually painting lead paint on to sunflower seeds - words fail me.

I must stick my head up over the parapet as a bit of a Kapoor fan, there's a v small sculpture in the Tate Modern which has got a curved indent in it that he's managed to paint so dark that it looks as if you're looking into forever (maaaaaaaan). Also the bean in Chicago is awesome, especially when your mates have their wedding photos done in front of it.
Am a whopping great Gormley fan though, his field of gorms was just marvellous, especially in that room in the new bit of the British Museum.
I used to go and look at art loads back in the day, what happened? Oh yeah.....kids.....

What have I been doing then?
You must have spent not just one, but many lifetimes being incredibly bad. I bet you've got some kind of season ticket to Anish Kapoor installations!

Abel Gance meets Triangle
It's excellent!
However, I can heartily recommend the overnight in Dieppe variation.

Just going back to the MoonRiders, I notice that it's a bit ironic that if you go onto the main forum page when you're not logged in, the advert at the top is from them. So they're part contributing to the upkeep of the forum!
