Next Fourth Plinth commission

What should be next on the Fourth Plinth? The 'Fourth Plinth' in Trafalgar Square was empty for many years but is now the location for specially commissioned art works. Currently Thomas Schütte's Model for a Hotel 2007 is installed there. This will be followed by a work by one of six shortlisted artists, who have produced models of their proposed works.
