Catherine Yass has been nominated for a Turner Prize. Her plan to drop a piano off the top of a 27-storey building in London, as a way to allow the community to “explore how sound travels”, has been vetoed by the local housing association. One commenter writes: “Since Yass was denied permission to throw a piano out the window, depriving residents the opportunity to explore how sound travels, her next project will be tossing a clock from a window, thereby allowing residents to explore how time flies. If throwing a clock is disallowed Yass will approach the housing association with an aesthetic placement of half a browning apple so passersby can experience how the worm turns.”
