Summer Exhibition cock-up

Here's a lovely story for non-Londoners. It was published in Metro - a free newspaper for London commuters - on 15 June. A friend brought it round on Wednesday evening. Brit. sculptor David Hensel submitted a sculpture of a laughing head to the R.A. Summer Exhibition. He included a wooden support, similar to my picture, to hold the head in the correct position. The judges rejected David's sculpture, but accepted its support, mistaking it for a potential exhibit! It just shows you what a bunch of clueless twits run the UK Arts Establishment. I've been telling you this for months, but you didn't believe me, did you?
