Rogue concept art and dubious advertising slogans

[venta]

On the way to work today, on the Playhatch/Sonning roundabout, was a door. A large, red, front door, standing upright in its frame. Through its letterbox protruded a newspaper, on its doorstep was a bottle of milk.

Just sitting there, on the edge of the roundabout. I don't know who put it there or why, but I approve.

I've just been to have my tea and evil-on-toast, and it seems work's kitchen is currently stocked with rather nice multigrain bread. County Pride, it is (thanks to beckyl for pointing out that I can't read - Country Pride just seemed much more likely), and in a nice dark blue bag.

Which says, in neat script "bread of the moment".

I feel so much more fashionable after my breakfast. You won't catch me eating it next week, though.

Explain ?

Some of us aren't as well-up in contemporary art as you :)

Well basically Sarah Lucas is one of those people who confuses provocatively challenging people's worldviews with just being crass and irritating. She has a particular talent for the latter.

Doesn't fruit look funny in a gallery?

Ah. I'd always assumed it was just my lack of artistic judgement that made these provocative-challenge-style artworks pointless. I was hoping better educated people could give me a bit more of an explanation of why. Just in general.

I'd transcribed most of 'Death of Sarah Lucas' before I noticed your title quoted it...

And, incidentally, don't think I didn't notice that awful pun in one of your subject lines this evening :)
