Controversial Turner Prize set to announce a winner

THE winner of this year's Turner Prize, which includes a mannequin perched on the loo and Homer Simpson among the shortlisted artists' works, was being announced today.

Four artists are in the running for the controversial prize at the show at London's Tate Britain.

Only three women have won the prize since its first year in 1984 – but three women are on this year's shortlist.

The £25,000 prize is awarded to a British artist under 50 for their outstanding work.
