When is an artist not an artist?............. When they play music and sing badly under a bridge.

Presumably you can buy her "work" on CD for £1.99 down HMV? Or does it cost £250,000 to have it "installed".(I nicked this comment from you tube)

Her art is about 4.13 into the film

I suppose the Turner Prize is about breaking boundaries - just like Joe did 200 years ago - it floats my boat.

we went to Tate Britain on Sunday to see the nominees for the Turner prize. It's a bit of a tradition for my other half, him and a friend go every year, they saw the infamous unmade bed and Damien Hirsts animals in formaldehyde.
I have to say she was the obvious choice, being the most contraversial, my money was on her.

After we'd been and looked at them we went to see the pre-Raphelites, I needed to see some proper art before we left!

It's all too easy to be sucked in by the new - and daring to be different in the 21st C is pretty much mainstream - I love all art - I even love the stuff I don't like because we have a society thats makes such art possible.

I'm full of shit like this me :wink:

I dunno. Grayson Perry seems alright.
