Editing Turner Prize (section)

===1988===
Sculpture artist [[Tony Cragg]] was awarded the prize by [[Alan Yentob]]. Other nominees included figurative/portrait painter [[Lucian Freud]], Pop artist [[Richard Hamilton (artist)|Richard Hamilton]], [[Richard Long (artist)|Richard Long]], [[David Mach]] (graduate of [[Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art]]), printer Boyd Webb, sculptor [[Alison Wilding]] and [[Richard Wilson (sculptor)|Richard Wilson]]. The appointment of Tate Director Nicholas Serota led to many changes such as the introduction of an annual rehang of the Collection and giving priority to modern and contemporary art. During this period the future of the Prize was uncertain. The Turner Prize was modified to be an artist-only prize without a published shortlist and a solo exhibition was awarded to the winner, Tony Cragg.<ref>{{cite web |title=Turner Prize 1988 – Exhibition at Tate Britain |url=https://www.tate.org.uk/whats-on/tate-britain/exhibition/turner-prize-1988 |website=Tate}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |last1=Hilton |first1=Tim |last2=Kennedy |first2=Maev |title=News: 1998 Turner prize goes to sculptor Tony Cragg |url=https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/1988/nov/23/20yearsoftheturnerprize.turnerprize |website=The Guardian |date=23 November 1988}}</ref>
