The pieces of artwork from the 2008 Folkestone Triennial which will stay put have just been announced, with additional news that Andrea Schlieker has been appointed curator of the second Folkestone Triennial in 2011.

The eight are :

· Adam Chodzko’s short film Pyramid and accompanying documentation sign

· Nathan Coley’s illuminated light structure Heaven is a Place Where Nothing Ever Happens

· Tracey Emin’s seven small bronzes representing Baby Things

· Patrick Tuttofuocco’s multi-coloured F O L K E S T O N E sign on the harbour arm and accompanying film

· Mark Wallinger’s Folk Stones, containing 19,240 numbered beach pebbles

· Richard Wentworth’s Racinated, a series of ten text plaques

· Pae White’s Barking Rocks, a rustic dog park

· Richard Wilson’s 18 Holes, a series of three beach huts

Good selection I’d say, although it seems some damage has occured to Richard Wilsons beach huts piece, I hope this can be fixed to keep it in it’s full glory.
