Turner prize - appalling fascination of a career-enhancing competition
I think artists are a bit bored with and wary of the Turner Prize by now, even if they find it hard to refuse when Nicholas Serota makes that fatal, but possibly career-enhancing call. It is like ending up on Big Brother, without having volunteered. Yet as much as the Turner appals for its circus atmosphere, it fascinates in equal measure. If last year's list tried to clear the decks of a resolutely native Young British Art creeping towards middle age and establishment status, this year's shortlist is interesting for different reasons.
