1. The four artists on the shortlist for Britain’s $65,000 Turner Prize have been announced, and surprisingly, there’s not a painter in the entire bunch; Luke Fowler and Elizabeth Price are both filmmakers, Paul Noble is the creator of “a dystopic fictional metropolis called Nobson Newtown” that’s populated by human figures drawn as excrement, and Spartacus Chetwynd is a performance artist with a strong pop culture bent. The winner will be announced at a ceremony on December 3. [via ArtsBeat]
