Whitechapel Bell Foundry (73)

This is such a great project: that Grayson Perry has agreed to make a bell to celebrate the potential end of the pandemic and – let’s hope – the revival of the Whitechapel Bell Foundry as a proper working Foundry, using the skills of artists, not just a vacuous tourist attraction, funded by a New York venture capitalist and annexed to an upmarket hotel.

We just await Robert Jenrick’s verdict.
