RA Summer Exhibition

The Royal Academy of Arts' Summer Exhibition 2010 opens its doors to the public on Monday 14 June and totters on until 22 August. A total of 1,267 exhibits selected from 11,000 entries will be on display. The star of the show is this King Kong style Silver Streak made entirely from wire coat hangers by David Mach. If you fancy it in your hall, it will set you back £265,000. Admission is a bit cheaper: adults £8, silver surfers £7 (an astronomical 87.5%).
