A Real Birmingham Family is Ikon's ongoing project by Birmingham-born, Turner Prize winning artist Gillian Wearing: a quest to find, and immortalise in bronze, a 'real' Birmingham family. During 2011 and 2012, residents of Birmingham were urged to nominate their families to be the face of Birmingham. No limits were placed on how the 21st century family might define itself, and nominations received include foster families, a group of friends and a single person. From the many hundreds of families to choose from, a shortlist of four has been arrived at by a diverse panel of community, cultural and religious figures, including former Aston Villa footballer Ian Taylor, Birmingham Post Editor Stacey Barnfield and Brian Gambles, Chief Executive of the new Library of Birmingham. Each shortlisted family is distinct, from an extended family of neighbours to a pair of sisters who are single mothers, representing a diverse range of social and cultural backgrounds.
