Gormless

I'm quite happy that the campaign to try to keep the Gormley statues on Crosby beach for a few months beyond the intended end-date has failed. The artwork was, after all, about transience, deportation, yearning for Another Place. And loss. The absence of the statues - from the end of November - won't be the end of the artistic statement, in that sense. It'll be a beginning.
