Trafalgar Square’s empty plinth

The fate of Trafalgar Square’s empty plinth is the subject of Nykris’s website, to coincide with the launch of the National Gallery Exhibition of prospective artworks for the vacant space. Conceived by London Mayor Ken Livingstone, the ‘fourth plinth’ candidates are also on show on-line at www.fourthplinth.co.uk. The site is designed to gather comments and reactions from the public and features images and information about each of the shortlisted proposals, such as Mark Quinn’s sculpture (pictured). Nykris was appointed to design the site at the end of October and the winning entry will be announced in spring 2004.
