Turner bonus

Looks like Turner contemporary is now delivering additional benefits, judging by the latest artwork commission, which is part of their arrivals series.

Not only is the new art work pleasing on the eye, but large sections of Margate's Stone Pier, have received a much needed a lick of paint as part of the new work by Norbert Francis Attard.

I just wonder whilst he is in the area, whether he might consider a commission at Flaig Mansions.


Details of this and other work are available at Turner contemporary's website click here.

  2. Thanets finest hard at work on the seafront at Westbrook, well done from us, the locals!

    There is a sound 'installation' by an Estonian artist running on Margate sea front at the moment funded by the Arts council, Turner Contemporary and other associated British arts funding organisations. Unfortunately this work is inaudable and the public are completely unaware of this publically funded 'installation'. So, local sound designers

    have added their own interpretation of the local sea and 'Surf Rake' equipment sounds to this film. An ambient piece this conforms nontheless to a set of 'rules' decided by the artists.
