Kara Walker Tate Modern Turbine Hall

Despite the vast volume of the Turbine Hall, the Fons  Americana still feels spatially constricted.

As sculptor Kara Walker's spoof advert indicates, this is intended for a large British public space.  It's modelled on the Victoria memorial by Buckingham Palace,  or the Albert Memorial and needs a similar outdoor location.

Conceptually however it is magnificent
