Bu içerikte, sanatçı Jasleen Kaur’ın son sergisi olan Alter Altar ile bu yıl Turner Ödülü’nü kazandığından bahsedilmektedir. Sergide eski bir Ford Escort araba, ibadet çanları ve Irn-Bru gibi unsurlar kullanılarak İskoç Sikh topluluğunun kutlandığı belirtilmektedir. Sergi, kişisel, siyasi ve ruhsal unsurların düşünceli bir şekilde bir araya getirildiği için jüri tarafından övgüyle karşılanmıştır. Kaur, ödülü Londra’daki Tate Britain’da düzenlenen bir törenle aldı. Sergi, aile fotoğrafları, bir Axminster halısı, dev bir dantel örtüyle kaplı eski bir araba ve kinetik el çanları gibi unsurları içermektedir. Kaur’ın çalışmaları, çevremizdeki nesneler ve ritüellerdeki kültürel belleğin nasıl katmanlı olduğunu keşfetmektedir. Turner Ödülü, İskoçya’nın Glasgow şehrindeki Tramway çağdaş sanat mekanında düzenlenen Alter Altar sergisi için verilmiştir. Önceki Turner Ödülü sahipleri arasında Anish Kapoor, Steve McQueen, Gillian Wearing ve Antony Gormley gibi tanınmış sanatçılar yer almaktadır. Bu yılın dört adayının eserlerinin sergisi Tate Britain’da 16 Şubat 2025 tarihine kadar devam edecektir. Turner Ödülü, her diğer yıl Tate dışındaki bir mekâna seyahat ederek İngiliz halkının çağdaş sanata erişimini genişletmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Gelecek yılın etkinliği, 2025 İngiltere Kültür Şehri kutlamalarının bir parçası olarak Bradford’da gerçekleşecektir.

The judges praised Kaur’s “unexpected and playful combinations of material”

Jasleen Kaur – an artist whose latest exhibition uses a vintage Ford Escort, worship bells and Irn-Bru to celebrate the Scottish Sikh community – has won this year’s Turner Prize.

The 37-year-old, who grew up in Glasgow, won the award for her Alter Altar exhibition at the city’s contemporary arts venue Tramway.

The judges noted the “considered way in which she weaves together the personal, political and spiritual in her exhibition”.

Kaur was praised for gathering “different voices through unexpected and playful combinations of material”.

The artist was presented with the £25,000 prize by actor James Norton at Tate Britain on Tuesday evening.

She beat fellow shortlisted nominees Pio Abad, Claudette Johnson and Delaine Le Bas.

Kaur’s exhibition includes family photos, an Axminster carpet, a vintage car covered in a giant doily and kinetic handbells.

Turner Prize organisers noted Kaur’s work explores how cultural memory is layered in the objects and rituals that surround us.

The judges said Alter Altar “reflects upon everyday objects, animating them through sound and music to summon community and cultural inheritance”, resulting in a “visual and aural experience that suggests both solidarity and joy”.

Kaur studied silversmithing and jewellery at Glasgow School of Art in 2008, before moving to London to study at the Royal College of Art the following year.

Her work has previously been showcased at the Victoria and Albert Museum. Her short film Yoorop showed an account of Europe using footage from popular Indian cinema.

It was intended to show an image of European-ness from an alternative cultural perspective.

Established in 1984, the Turner Prize is the most high-profile award in British art and this year it celebrates its 40th anniversary.

Named after the British painter JMW Turner, the prize aims to promote public debate around new developments in contemporary British art.

Previous winners include Anish Kapoor, Steve McQueen, Gillian Wearing, Antony Gormley, Grayson Perry, Jeremy Deller, Helen Marten and Veronica Ryan.

The exhibition of this year’s four shortlisted artworks runs at the Tate Britain until 16 February 2025.

Every other year, the prize travels to a non-Tate venue, to widen the British public’s access to contemporary art. Next year’s event will be held in Bradford as part of the 2025 UK City of Culture celebrations.
