Would you 'Adam and Eve'* it?
The Turner Prize has been won by someone who has produced a very beautiful (in my opinion!) piece of artwork.
No lights flicking on and off; no unmade beds; no pickled creatures; it was actually an artwork on a wall, literally. Richard Wright's work will be destroyed at the end of the exhibition; as they said earlier on the news, it sums up life today, something beautiful that is here one minute, gone the next.
I would have entered myself next year, but the entrants have to be a British artist under 50!! :-( :-( :-S
