No need for the chART Squad to travel abroad for this one; just take a walk down good ol’London and see what the northwest plinth in Trafalgar Square has for us! After king William IV(whose statue it was supposed to hold) died in 1837 the plinth remained empty for over 150years, until the Royal Society for the encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Commercefound the perfect use for it: displaying contemporary artworks. Ever since 1998 numerousartists have been commissioned to display artworks right under Napo… I mean, AdmiralNelson’s nose, and in today’s episode we are going to take a look at two of them: HansHaacke’s Gift Horse (2015) and David Shrigley’s Really Good (2016). Are they great? Are theydumb? Come give us a listen and hear what we think about them!
