	Turner Prize won by man who turns lights off - Telegraph
		THE £20,000 annual Turner Prize, sometimes also known as the Prize for the Emperor's New Clothes, was awarded last night to an artist who exhibited an empty room with lights that flicker on and off every five seconds.
		When his entry for the Turner Prize exhibition was unveiled at the Tate Britain in London last month, it met with a mixture of incredulity, attempts at deep philosophising and plain outrage.
		Even by the standards of a prize that has been contested by Chris Offili's elephant dung paintings, Tracey Emin's soiled bed and dirty knickers and Damien Hirst's sliced and pickled animals, Creed's work is widely considered exceptionally odd and is likely to quicken debate about the prize's future.

	Turner again - Turner Prize for UK art ArtForum - Find Articles
		The annual award of the Turner Prize - a misguided conspiracy between the Tate Gallery and Channel 4 TV to bring contemporary art to a wider audience - is born of the same pro-art promotional zeal.
		In fact the Turner has settled into a ritual pattern: the shortlist is announced, the quality press polish up their profiles on the four contending artists, and the rest of the media get down to a bout of contemporary-art-bashing.
		The fact that sculptor Antony Gormley won the Turner Prize this year was less surprising than that the notoriously shy Charles Saatchi gave a speech.

		The Stuckists have demonstrated annually since 2000 outside Tate Britain against the Turner Prize, initially dressed as clowns (as the Tate was run by them).
		These events have become almost an integral part of the Prize, to the extent that they received more coverage on the Channel 4 programme Twenty Years of the Turner Prize than most of the nominees.
		On the basis that Turner was a radical artist, his name has been hijacked to give spurious credibility.

	Artists compete for Britain's Turner Prize
		Quirky but uncontroversial appears to be the aesthetic among the works shortlisted for this year's Turner Prize for contemporary art.
		The Turner prize has often generated controversy with many of its past winners and their provocative, unusual works, and has been criticized for rewarding shock value over artistic merit.
		Visitors to this year's Turner Prize exhibition, which opens Tuesday at the Tate Britain and runs until Jan. 22, will first see a wooden shed Simon Starling's work titled "Shedboatshed." It began as a shed before he dismantled it and made it into a boat he paddled down the Rhine.

		If everyone simply shrugs their shoulders when the list of Turner Prize contenders is released, then its sponsors begin to look like what they really are: the existing arts establishment and the British culture industry.

	Turner Prize 1998: Tate Gallery
		The Turner allies itself with a tradition of twentieth century art that has systematically debunked all notions of artistic value, originality and authorship; and yet at the end of a century's Dadaism and Situationism, after Duchamp, after Lawrence Weiner, after Beuys, the Turner Prize is...
		The fascination of the Turner Prize is that it calls upon us to search for this kind of aesthetic satisfaction, while negating all the qualities that have been held in the past to give it.
		What all these artists share, and what the Turner Prize with its atmosphere of a great event brings out in their work, is a desire to communicate with the broadest possible public.The Chris Ofili known for his elephant dung and his pop iconography is absolutely in this tradition.

		The £25,000 Turner Prize - called the emperor's new clothes prize by its many exasperated critics - was won last night by the German-born abstract artist, Tomma Abts.
		While she was the red-hot favourite with the bookmakers to lift the prize, many art critics have described her work as dull, confusing and with no obvious subjects.
		Abts, born in Kiel, Germany, was eligible for the prize because she has lived and worked in Britain for the past decade.
