The Thinker
Gotta love the Turner Prize. Art at it's finest.

This years winner was Keith Tyson and his piece "The Thinker". It's a column filled with computers which will operate for 33 000 years.

My favourite piece this year was "Arsewoman in Wonderland" by Fiona Banner. It is the plot of a porn movie written on a giant canvas. Other great winners from the past include 1998's winner Chris Ofili who's work was a Virgin Mary made of elephant dung. A perfect summary of the Catholic Church in my opinion!

Pithy Quotes

" The world is burdened with young fogies. Old men with ossified minds are easily dealt with. But men who look young, act young and everlastingly harp on the fact that they are young, but who nevertheless think and act with a degree of caution that would be excessive in their grandfathers, are the curse of the world. Their very conservatism is secondhand, and they don't know what they are conserving. "
Robertson Davies
