Glasgow painter Richard Wright wins England's Turner prize for his large scale gold leaf fresco. See other entries here

Beautiful, but sadly, temporary.
The work will be destroyed once the exhibit is over.

Tear it down!!!!. Where could you
put something like that. Go build sand castles, crazy waste of time and effort. The art world is a bit mad.
It is not best that we should all think alike: it's the difference
of opinions that makes horse-races. Mark Twain.

The gold leaf fresco beats the cow brains and the airplane fuselage dust by a mile.
