The Turner Prize in 25 years — United Kingdom contemporary art trends from fashion _ silence Liao avant-garde artists Union

TurnerPrize (Turner Prize) 2008 award 1. opening of embarrassment and confusion of the 80 's 1984 — United Kingdom writer Oyl novel "1984" make this number looks not so lucky. United Kingdom in what is known apart from the old, traditional?, hegemonic, gentleman, United Kingdom literature brilliant. By the early 1980s in the United Kingdom, in the light of its literature, the mapping is contemporary art tablets once empty disorienting wilderness. In the literature such as the artistic mainstream pride strong State, engaged in contemporary art of businessmen and its so-called internationally acclaimed artists, like few — the 1980s United Kingdom people who own the number out to some famous contemporary artists to United Kingdom, with a hand of five finger is sufficient. 25 years ago, the United Kingdom artist J.M.W.Turner named Turner Prize at Tate art gallery, United Kingdom (TateGallery) established. This is designed to reward and cultivating its own contemporary artists awards from its established 1984--at--I came along at the right number of bad luck, seems to have heralded a bump bumps of contemporary art for the beginning of history. Everything is hard in the beginning — the United Kingdom who are cautious about balance, after the Turner Prize-laureate of the Virgin are carefully presented to the 80 's new expressionist painting pioneer character---Macomb Morley (Malcolm Morley), although this has United Kingdom nationality's artist previously has lived in New York for over 20 years, nianguobanbai and fame Yuanyang---it is interesting to note that the Turner Prize winner of first prize of the day did not appear at the awards stage. Contemporary art award in the United Kingdom's embarrassing opening maybe not as bad as people think. Although the 1980s United Kingdom nationals mistrust on contemporary art and contemporary art of the weak to present like a pair of unspoken tension between couples; 80 's hit by economic recession in the United Kingdom, the Turner Prize in 1990, even because of the emergence of financial issues and could not be held as scheduled; addition of conservative party came to power in 1979 by the Thatcher Government was compounded by the successive abolition of the State of the art project investment, fortunately, a group interested in supporting national arts development of enterprises, individuals and groups can still force the hanchen to origin of contemporary art opens a warm embrace. In the prevailing economic aid groups, "new art logistic Regiment" actually became the Turner Prize established at the beginning of the most solid economic backing, the will power firmness of economic aid groups through the purchase of art seeks to enrich the Tate Gallery of modern art departments. At the same time have to mention one example---in 1983 United States Los Angeles modern art museum opening commemoration of personal collection exhibition with exhibition of stimulation, the United Kingdom's advertising Tycoon Charles Saqi and Madame de Li silk will North London's warehouse as demonstrate their years of collection efforts-including pop artist Andy rwoho and a very simple visual artists represent multiple Ion Botnaru de Germany heavyweight level character works of the gallery. 1985 saqi Gallery officially open to the public. Its collections of value and giving space not less than any one London City Museum and exhibition facilities. Gallery free admission on Friday and Saturday, as the purse string is not too warm art college students provides a very good contact with contemporary art---in particular from contemporary art sites--New York art-air. This type of taste Qun's Gallery and smart art dealer, as well as in economic recession touches moldy head of real estate developers to art students price provides space facilities etc. rocked the opportunity for this group of ambitious poor students of contemporary art in the United Kingdom's next decade---90 's upcoming show. 2.YBAs fn implantation and vibrant 90 's 1988, 23-year-old Daming Ann Hurst (DamienHurst) also in London Goldsmith GE de Smith College student in grade two. Economic downturn for the students didn't have the money anyway, what's the big deal about the relationship between the River Thames in the Southeast, London free of expensive warehouse looks just like heaven. Bold Daming Ahn opens its lease, as the venue, will he and the other 15 students work together show which--and as an exhibition named "freeze". This field appears to be the pilot of the exhibition has become a legend. These energetic students own sponsorship, PR, paint the walls, find people to write Festival, printing exhibition catalogs, and even get a cocktail party to celebrate the launch. Following the "freezing" exhibition, in the early 1990s in the same warehouse, Hurst planning all kinds of exhibitions have been held. This group in the narrow sense, means to Hurst-led exhibition due to freezing and gathered together into groups of young artists, in a broader sense refers to the 1990s onwards are active in the United Kingdom and the world of young artists, is the world United Kingdom known as YBAs (young British artists). To narrow YBAs, for example, they create works mostly ignored art defined by traditional practices, with a strong visual impact and psychological challenge-whether by 1999 the nomination-jussy Amy (Tracey Emin) to the private life of self-exposure of creation out of works "my bed" (Mybed) or 95 years of award winners Hurst in 1993 Biennale once before the famous animal protection organizations have suffered from the harsh assessment "is divided by the mother-child" (Motherand ChildDivided)-a pair of foam in the formaldehyde in a beautiful and great cow and her son, body from around the median was evenly split. These vibrant young artists to break through the conventional thinking more footage than the forms creation and proactive social self promotional sales activities, and the late 80 's by the Government to promote entrepreneurship in the same strain of freedom. They quickly get media and smart art traders concerned. GE de Smith College graduates into the eyes of the art merchant demand for hot momo. As mentioned above, rich in Justin Saqi in 1990 that bought Hurst quite controversial for a heart is cut offCattle head, flies, flies, eggs, and fly with composition works "Millennium". Thereafter until 2004, saqi are Hearst creative activity the most important economic backing as well as their biggest YBA supporters. In the North of London Saqi Saqi Gallery, 92 to 95 years continuous four named "young British artists exhibition" (Young British Artistsexhibition), group exhibition, this is a reference to the establishment of the YBAs played the role of the flames. If YBAs is United Kingdom contemporary art history, an important cultural phenomenon, a mirror of contemporary art – the Turner Prize in the 1990s will be how to reflect this change? after the 1980s economic turmoil, the Turner Prize stand cross forced the closure of the 90 's are not too decent for the first year, in 1991 the re-launch. Organizers set rules around again, the awards candidates is limited to less than 50-year-old 4-digit, to prevent the emergence in the 1980s was tart critic the ironic "lifetime achievement award" embarrassment. This age limit, the stimulating more young artists participating in passion-and indeed at the 1991 four candidates, three in 30 years of age, of which 2 are graduated from the London School of GE Goldsmith Goldsmith. The new provisions of the Turner Prize looks like into the YBA ' a flower ball-93, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99 winners, even including many awards candidates all descent from YBAs. At the same time have won the Turner Prize will amount to 2 million, and independent TV station four channels of support, the award ceremony in each of the four channels for live broadcast, attract more eyeballs of ordinary citizens. YBAs, driven out of the United Kingdom national interest for contemporary art, stimulated the development of the art market, as the Turner Prize has injected a fresh green blood. And most works of YBAs Turner Prize has also been media ridicule and critical objects —--the most typical is hung up the light art "(LightArt) title. Yet it is this and the unspoken understanding media, the Turner Prize in the world to have appeared in the 90s Turner Prize is no longer in the small circle of art elite enjoy themselves, it's a step by step to go out of the 80 's plight and frustration that toucheth the YBAs vitality, began a national entertainment event like a fashionable topic. 3. the internationalization of contemporary art and modern 21st century 1997 labour party came to power, the end of the conservative party in the United Kingdom 18 years in politics. Features of the new Blair regime "rule, Britania!" (Rule, Britannia!), called for the return of cultural activity, trying to show to the world of a young and full of creativity of the new image of the United Kingdom. As the United Kingdom's economy in the progressive development of the 21st century, while in the Blair regime's support and actively promote, artistic projects and the rapid expansion of the art market. In May 2000, the South Bank of the River Thames TATEModern officially opened, become the mainstream of contemporary arts-in-the-art system of the United Kingdom landmark events. TATEModern opening of the first year, the number of visitors more than 5 million, including a lot of tourists from all over the world. In 2003, London, the first international art fair Frieze artfair, turnover up to £ 0 00 200,000, (£ 20 million). Commercial success for art business people can see past the artists who return on investment of welcome; all over the world have organized biennial, triennial in promoting contemporary art further integration into the international exchange of large stage; the city began to enjoy contemporary art brings economic and urban amenities. In London since 03, art will be held regularly every year, the size of the Museum of London at the art fair during the interaction, organize exhibitions around the world to demonstrated at London artists and art market society. In London towards the international art market, London has gradually become the artists ' stay. Most notably those in London reading multiple nationality in art college students after graduation because and agency relations or in the Gallery all exhibitions on giving work to gradually put London as his artistic activities of the Centre. The Turner Prize, keeping up with the upsurge of internationalization by Turner Prize 2000 nominated candidates, three quarters of all holders of United Kingdom nationality other than nationality. And international standards and frequent exchanges of international art exchange activities as the 21st century United Kingdom contemporary art of a great feature, it also raises awareness about ', ' art ', ' and ', ' artist ', ' discussion of the definition. The art of the trend in the Turner Prize has been clearly reflected. 2001 winners a very simple Visual artist Martin, Kerry was Martin Creed, concept art "lights the lights", is only an empty exhibition hall let light every 5 seconds on a put out once the world "this is art?", "visit the person's mental expectations", etc. on contemporary art and modern art concept series discussion; this kind of confusion and doubt is also available in the 2003 winners Cresson Perry (GraysonPerry) found in the works---whether in the traditional porcelain techniques make map modern social issues of porcelain pot series, or he branch bud of ladies playing children, expression of contemporary art of love and hate feeling of works "Bud". Into the 21st century, the art of Visual impact on the stressed YBAs remained active, whereas another group pay more attention to the work of the production process and the process and exchange relations, as well as practical social survey of artists began to appear. Their artistic activities sensitive access to the attention of Turner's perspective---Turner Prize winners, 2002 year Kay history Tyson (Keith Tyson), 2004 's Jamie Qandil (Jeremy Deller), 2005 annual Simon GmbHForest (SimonStarling) and other artists with the above characteristics. They seem more like an artist, curator, producer of the complex to the possibilities of contemporary art forms such as video recording, television talk and so on creation, for social issues, political situation more candid questions. In May of this year 2008, the Tate Gallery announced this year's Turner Prize candidate list, its award-winning results will be announced in early December. Always been critics accused of lack of female artists---in Turner's 25 years of history, only three female artist award, this year seems to be a dramatic change-four candidates, three that are female. This in turn explains? people on the mesh. 4. review of the Turner Prize in overseas although held a retrospective of the Turner Prize is highlighting the great historical significance---Turner's history is the history of contemporary art in the United Kingdom's most faithful mirror, but how in the history of the award winner's work is on display is a award winning knit and United Kingdom art history in the world art coordinate changes, it is not an easy task. The significance of the YBAs? how to reference and how to avoid YBAs group exhibition of subtitle illusion? how of unsuccessful candidates? they United Kingdom contemporary art where the contribution of? logically seems logical relationship of toward three-dimensional visual performance challenge, move-up difficult. Conservative move-in one of the ways that simply follow the time plate on the Turner Prize in history for segmentation-the winner of the 80 's, 90 's winner, 2000 years after the winners and their representatives. This kind of move methods such as at the end of April to mid-July in Japan Tokyo, Mori Art Museum, Turner retrospective. But this seems to have and the rules of the Shou-li Japan people in traditional art appreciation stimulus, the specification of a rational framework, experience in keeping with the contemporary art of crazy. If you would like to explore more, of course, you can extract the evening go to Mori Art Museum exhibition seminar held in batch, there will be various experts to concentrate on YBAs, United Kingdom a variety of contemporary art details of assessment, which seems to be just a small circle in the fashionable---cannot expect restaurant last end of sweets to evaluate the entire dinner, not all people have the patience to wait until the dessert time. Turner Prize a quarter of a century of retrospective, remains an emotional and award-winning stimulation. The United Kingdom on behalf of the periods of contemporary art works of the highest peak of winner come together to have people dress stylish, behave appropriately, as if being in a serious and grand victory dinner---soon to be finished this draft I, think that art is a gorgeous gown, which filled the lice.
