A REAL HEAD-TURNER from our Bins in Contemporary Art Correspondent, Jonathan Foreman.

A message to Martin Boyce: Good job in elevating the humble bin to where it belongs. Not since the days of Neil Buchanan making a picture of Terry's nan out of discarded crisp packets have we been so happy.

MODERN ART IS RUBBISH. That's what Blur once wrote on an album cover (CORRECTION: It was MODERN LIFE IS RUBBISH, thanks Ben - glad to know someone's paying attention.) This guy, George Shaw, certainly thinks so... or not? I don't really know. I find it confusing. Apparently he paints in Humbrol enamels. Good effort fella.

Cheers to J. Foreman of Tyneside for this spot.

If you, dear reader, have any other images of fine art bins, please do send them our way. We love a bit of culture round these parts.

CHEERS.
