Turner Prize 2024 Exhibition Opens at Tate Britain

The Turner Prize 2024 exhibition at Tate Britain celebrates its 40th anniversary, showcasing the works of shortlisted artists Pio Abad, Claudette Johnson, Jasleen Kaur, and Delaine Le Bas. Each artist presents diverse and engaging works, such as Abad's three-meter concrete sculpture critiquing Imelda Marcos's extravagance and Johnson's poignant portraits of Black subjects that challenge historical marginalization. Kaur's immersive installation incorporates cultural references from her Sikh upbringing, while Le Bas draws on her Roma heritage to create a deeply personal atmosphere. The exhibition runs from September 25 to February 16, with the winner announced on December 3, 2024. This year marks the prize's return to Tate Britain after six years, highlighting varied narratives of identity and community. Alex Farquharson, chair of the jury, emphasizes the vibrancy and significance of the artists' work in reflecting personal and collective histories.
