Butt
That's Mr J under the exhibit 'butt' by Anthea Hamilton one of the shortlisted artists for the 2016 Turner Prize.
My favourite was an exhibit by Micheal Dean titled 'United Kingdom poverty line for two adults and two children: twenty thousand four hundred and thirty six pounds sterling as published on 1st September 2016' which consists of £20,436 in pennies.
This is the amount of money the government states is the minimum that two adults and two children need to survive for a year in the UK. When installing the work, Dean removed one coin, meaning that now the money you see before you is one penny less than the poverty line.
We were also invited to preview a new exhibition by Paul Nash, which I thought was excellent.
