In an exemplary showcase of this year’s four Turner prize contenders, Barbara Walker’s devastatingly direct Windrush scandal portraits and Jesse Darling’s antic take on broken Britain lead the field
First presented in 1984, named after English painter J M W Turner, The Turner Prize is the art competition that introduced us to Tracey Emin's iconic bed, Damien Hurst's formaldehyde cow and calf and not forgetting Anthea Hamilton's giant bum.
Featuring the work of Barbara Walker, Jesse Darling, Rory Pilgrim, and Ghislaine Leung, this year’s Turner Prize is about “humanity and vulnerability”, says curator Noelle Collins
