‘Small city nowhuge’ artist onTurner shortlist
NAKED women frolicking in a pool whilst a nearby fish attempts to eat a strawberry; blasts of music, noise and voices in a dark room; an exhibition of grotesque pencil sketches and sculptures; all up for the £25k Turner prize in Londonderry UK City of Culture 2013 later this year.
The shortlist for the prize was announced on Thursday (April 25) and features Laure Prouvost, Tino Sehgal, David Shrigley and Lynette Yiadom-Boakye.
The latter - the first black woman to be nominated for the prize - is probably an outsider because she painted pictures of people using oil paints.
