==Alternative and spoof prizes== The Turner Prize has spawned various other prizes in reaction to or ridiculing it. In 1993, the [[K Foundation]] gave an "[[K Foundation art award|Anti-Turner Prize]]" of Β£40,000 for the "worst artist in Britain" with the same short list as the official prize: the winner of both prizes was [[Rachel Whiteread]]. In 1999, Trevor Prideaux organized the ongoing [[Turnip Prize]] as "a crap art competition... You can enter anything you like, but it must be rubbish"; the judging criteria include "Lack of effort" and "Is it shit?" In 2000, the [[Stuckism|Stuckists]] instituted "The Real Turner Prize" for painters, and an "Art Clown of the Year Award" for "outstanding idiocy in the visual arts," both continued in the subsequent years (the Clown award given in 2002 to Serota).<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20070313083243/http://www.telegraph.co.uk/arts/main.jhtml?xml=%2Farts%2F2002%2F12%2F09%2Fbaturn09.xml "A custard pie for Serota as Turner Prize winner named"], ''[[The Daily Telegraph]]'', 9 December 2002.
