Sometimes these things make me cry but this time The Turner prize was so off-the-wall I howled with laughter.
There is a juried art show near me now. Two of the critically acclaimed "show-stoppers" were a life-sized plywood sheep with brillo pads glued to it. Another entry was also a sheet of plywood with two baby dolls nailed to it. One had a smashed head and an arm missing and both were covered with white gesso. Both had "clever" titles but I can't remember them.
I didn't get into this show with "Mother and Daughter"
