Big Blue Rooster

The sculpture called Hahn/Cock by German artist Katharina Fritsch is the latest artwork to grace the fourth plinth in London’s Trafalgar Square.

Can anyone tell me what it's about? And, more to the point, have taxpayers paid for it?

One of the posters on that site thought it was a bit disrespectful to put it right in front of Nelson (I suppose because its French) - pigeons don't seem to mind about nationality though do they
