Turner Prize’s Shared Winners Decision Says Something Important About Today’s Arts World

ISSUES Posted: December 5, 2019 10:28 am

Phil Kennicott: “The artists’ appeal, and the jury’s willingness to grant it, says a lot about the kind of art these particular artists make, which is political, documentary, socially engaged and deeply intertwined with activism. This wasn’t just about refusing the idea that one of them take home the 25,000 pound first prize while the other three received the 5,000 pound finalist awards. Rather, it was about giving one social concern priority over the others.” – Washington Post
