Turner Prize 2001
7 November 2001 - 20 January 2002
Admission: ￡3
Sponsored by Channel 4
The Turner Prize at Tate Britain is widely recognised as one of the
most important and prestigious awards for the visual arts in Europe.
An exhibition of a selection of works by all 4 short-listed artists is
on view at Tate Britain from 7 November 2001 - 20 January 2002 and the
winner of the ￡20,000 prize will be announced at Tate Britain on 9
December 2001 during a live broadcast by Channel 4.
The prize is awarded to a British artist under 50 for an outstanding
exhibition or other presentation of their work in the twelve months
preceding 24 May 2001. It was established in 1984 by Tate's Patrons of
New Art and is intended to promote public discussion of new
developments in contemporary British art.
This year's short-listed artists are:
Richard Billingham for his solo exhibition at the Ikon Gallery,
Birmingham, and for his contributions to The Sleep of Reason at the
Norwich Gallery and to Body Beautiful at Galerie Jennifer Flay, Nice,
in which he showed the extension of his work into video and a poignant
return to places of childhood memory in his recent photographs.
Martin Creed for Martin Creed Works, organised by Southampton City Art
Gallery and shown at Leeds City Art Gallery, Bluecoat Gallery,
Liverpool, and Camden Arts Centre, London and Art Now: Martin Creed,
Tate Britain, London, in which he reaffirmed the rigour and purity of
his work and its characteristic mixture of seriousness and humour.
Isaac Julien for his exhibitions at Cornerhouse, Manchester, the South
London Gallery and Victoria Miro Gallery, London in collaboration with
Film and Video Umbrella, of his films, which combine theoretical
sophistication with lush sensuality, intelligence, wit and emotional
complexity.
Mike Nelson for his contribution to the British Art Show, National
Touring Exhibitions, which exemplified the haunting resonance of his
installation works, in which he creates places that suggest a sense of
threat, danger, or life on the edge.
