UK: Romani artist Delaine Le Bas nominated for the prestigious Turner Prize
The other nominees are Pio Abad, Claudette Johnson and Jasleen Kaur. All of the nominees’ works will be exhibited at Tate Britain from 25 September 2024 to 16 February 2025. The winner of the 40th annual Turner Prize will be announced at an award ceremony at Tate Britain on 3 December 2024. “It is an honour to announce such a fantastic shortlist of artists and I cannot wait to see their exhibition at Tate Britain this autumn,” said Alex Farquharson, Director of the Tate Britain and chair of the jury for the Turner Prize.
“All four of them make work that is full of life. They show how contemporary art can fascinate, surprise and move us, and how it can speak powerfully of complex identities and memories, often through the subtlest of details. In the Turner Prize’s 40th year, this shortlist proves that British artistic talent is as rich and vibrant as ever,” Farquharson said.
