Turing is depicted seated and looking at a German Enigma machine. He is dressed in a jacket, but there is some deliberate untidiness in his clothing. In 2007, it was commented that the statue acknowledges Turing as a codebreaker but not as a gay icon.[4] The statue became part of a new exhibition at Bletchley Park on Alan Turing in 2012, the centenary year of Turing's birth.[5] Sir John Dermot Turing, nephew of Alan Turing, attended the opening of the exhibition and posed with the statue.[6] See also
