The Turner Prize 2022

Output Type:Exhibition
Venue:Tate Liverpool
Dates:20/10/2022 - 19/3/2023

Each year the Turner Prize jury nominates a group of artists for an outstanding exhibition or presentation. The prize was first awarded in 1984. It was founded to encourage a wider interest in contemporary art and is named after Romantic artist JMW Turner, who had been innovative and controversial in his own time and is now considered to be one of the greatest British painters.

The Turner Prize is awarded to an artist born or based in the UK, celebrating recent developments in their work. The prize has consistently provoked discussion and debate on modern and contemporary art in the popular sphere in the UK, in part due to its focus on new art. The four shortlisted artists for the Turner Prize 2022 are: Heather Phillipso; Ingrid Pollard; Veronica Ryan (winner); Sin Wai Kin.
