What is the Turner Prize?
The Turner Prize is a contemporary art award that was set

up in 1984 to celebrate new developments in contemporary art.
The prize is awarded to an artist under fifty, born, living or working in Britain, for an outstanding exhibition or other presentation in the twelve months before 6 May 2008.
Nominations are invited each year, and the prize is judged

by an independent jury that changes annually. Four artists
are shortlisted and they present works in a show normally
held at Tate Britain before the winner is announced in December. The artists are not judged on their show at Tate
– the decision is based on the work they were nominated for.
