Marketing manoeuvre or clever conceptual art piece?
A trip to Folkestone Triennial may land you with more than you bargained for, or it may not, depending on the degree you decide to interact with Michael Sailstorfer’s new work Folkestone Digs where 30 bars of gold may, or may not, still be buried under the sand of Outer Harbour Beach.
The triennial is on until 2nd November, but if you don't make it there, Dan Addison's blog 'Gold Rush', found on their website, vividly captures and reflects on that particular piece of beach action.
But mention of the above is not intended to overshadow the many other interesting (some big name) artists exhibiting public artworks, that are waiting to be discovered as you walk round the town.
So, with the added benefit of lungfuls of fresh sea air, this is also a chance to support Creative Foundation in their bid to transform the town through creative activity.
