Sacrilege in London

Jeremy Dellar’s rather fantastic inflatable Stonehenge is now in London. There are a couple of pieces about it on the Telegraph and Londonist websites. The Telegraph quotes Boris Johnson:

‘You don’t have to be a specialist in ancient British history or an acolyte of the summer solstice ritual to be aware of the unending fascination that Stonehenge continues to inspire around the world. Jeremy Deller’s Sacrilege is a wonderfully witty, quite literal leap into that history and a fantastic example of the irreverence that are hallmarks of our great British humour and our incomparable artists.
