Katharina Firch designed the Big Blue Cock at Trafalgar Square. This is actually a big blue cock erected in the midst of historical buildings. The colour of the bird is an interesting shade of blue. The space in which the Blue Cock was constructed was actually left open to construct a statue of the local war hero. The beauty of this design is such different people have different interpretations to the design (Lawson, 2013). The people all have their own interpretation and the statue seems to inviting the questioning and participative ability of the people. This is the primary purpose of art, to question and wonder at the significance of the statute. Some people protested against the image as they felt it was mocking the other war heroes of Britain. The local authorities who allowed this construction had assured people it is not so. Some say this construction is the celebration of the birth of the prince. Some people wonder if it was a tribute to the French heritage or if strong feministic woman designed this to primarily mock the men of the societies constructed it (Grassi, 2014). Whatever maybe the reason the big blue cock is truly a quirky artistic symbol that is gaining its own set of fans.
Crinson (2005) discussed what is called commemorative art. This is an art form that gives an urban community a sense of historical continuity. In the context of the Red Phone Box, it is these historical carryovers that lend themselves to artistic meanings. A social engagement is created in consensus here and in the case of the Big Blue Cock, a social engagement is created in debates.
