ARE you an identical twin? Fancy taking part in an art exhibition at the Tate Modern? (or as The Guardian puts it sitting in front of a pair of Damien Hirst's spot paintings while people look at you.)
The museum is appealing for pairs of identical twins to get in touch as it announced details of this year's big autumn show, Pop Life: Art in a Material World, examining Andy Warhol's declaration that "good business is the best art". It's to be held in October.
According to the Independent, the exhibition, three years in the planning, will also look at more modern day artists at their most "self-aggrandising."
The gallery is reported to want to replicate a performance first unveiled at the 1992 Cologne Art Fair, where Hirst placed twins in front of his spot paintings.
Check out Tate Modern's website for more details of the exhibition.
The Guardian reports that you should email twins@tate.org if you are interested in taking part.
I haven't got an identical twin...or even any sort of twin, but I'd like to take part anyway if that's OK. Lx

It's definitely okay by me, Ithink but I am not the boss and I could be your twin for the day.
