從7月5日起，安東尼葛姆雷開始在英國特拉法廣場的第四根基柱上，呈現(xiàn)他的現(xiàn)代藝術(shù)作品。作品名為“一個接一個”，在作品展現(xiàn)的100天內(nèi)，每天由一個不同的人在倫敦市中心的特拉法廣場的第四根基柱旁站立一小時，全天24小時不間斷。站立的人可以隨便擺姿勢，但要在合法的范圍內(nèi)。

英國全國有14500人申請參與這個作品，第一位將出場的35歲的家庭主婦Rachel。她之后將由來自布萊頓的護士Jason Clark接過接力棒。其他第一天即將登場的人還包括51歲來自倫敦的咨詢顧問Jill Gatcum，22歲來自斯里蘭卡的學生藝術(shù)家Suren Seneviratne等。

即將在七月份登場的年紀最大的參與者是83歲來自牛津的Gwynneth Pedler，她準備打旗語。而另一位金發(fā)美女學生Heather Pringle，準備在現(xiàn)場度過自己的20歲生日。

“一個接一個”活雕塑將一直沿續(xù)到10月14日，整個活動期間將會有2400人參與。

Empty plinth volunteers step up

Antony Gormley's Fourth Plinth art project is set to begin in London's Trafalgar Square later.

The One and Other project will see a different person standing on the plinth every hour for 24 hours a day over the next 100 days. More than 14,500 people from across Britain have so far applied to take part in the event.

Housewife Rachel Wardell, 35, will take her place as the first "living statue" when the event kicks off at 0900 BST. She will be followed by Jason Clark, a 41-year-old nurse from Brighton.. Other people to take to the plinth on the first day include Jill Gatcum, 51, a consultant from London and Suren Seneviratne, a 22-year-old Sri Lankan student and artist.

The oldest among July's 615 participants is pensioner Gwynneth Pedler, 83, from Oxford, who plans to signal with semaphore flags. While Heather Pringle, a student from Hexham, will celebrate her 20th birthday on the plinth.

Living statues for following months will be announced later, with 2,400 people taking part up to 14 October.
