Turner Shortlist

This year the Turner Prize exhibition moves to Ebrington in Derry-Londonderry, which is the UK City of Culture 2013. What the hell the Turner Prize has to do with culture is beyond me. This year only two shortlisted ... er ... artists are worth mentioning: Lynette Yiadom-Boakye and David Shrigley. Yiadom-Boakye was nominated for her exhibition Extracts and Verses at Chisenhale Gallery. Shown is her pathetic Complication (2013). David Shrigley was nominated for his solo exhibition at Hayward Gallery: David Shrigley: Brain Activity. CLICK for a Telegraph slide show.
