UK - London - Katharina Fritsch's Hahn/Cock on the fourth plinth

German artist Katharina Fritsch's sculpture 'Hahn/Cock', a 4.72m high scale fibre glass and polyester resin, ultramarine blue domestic cockerel, just unveiled on the fourth plinth in the north-west corner of Trafalgar Square, London. The 4th plinth was intended to hold a statue of William IV, but remained bare due to low funds. In 1999, a sequence of three contemporary artworks to be displayed on the plinth were announced.
