Dear readers,
Some French icon in Trafalgar square not intentionally though. Trafalgar was a war won by Trafalgar over Napoleon in 1805.
This example shows that rotating sculpture in a public space such as the 4th plinth can be powerful. Great idea that needs to be applied everywhere if possible. I like the website of the Trafalgar square that calls for art, especially this visionary statement:

The artist of Hahn / Cock is Katarina Fritsch.

Vision and strategy
"London is a city that's not afraid of taking risks. It's a place that's full of tradition, but also about innovation, capable of embracing the future. And it's a city of diversity."
Marc Quinn (Fourth Plinth artist 2005 - 2007)

Imagine, for a moment, a London without culture:
No theatres
No art galleries
No concert halls
No film, fashion or design.
No filmmakers in Soho.
No artists in the east end

No artists in the East End.
It's a bleak and impossible picture to imagine. Thankfully, London’s arts and cultural sector is a great success story.
The Mayor and Greater London Authority play a key role in ensuring that London remains a hotbed for creativity and innovation and that the capital’s rich cultural offering is accessible to more Londoners.
