Tuesday sees the announcement of the Turner prize shortlist. One critic has described the prize as "bipolar",
veering
between good and bad years. Last year’s shortlist — which I was involved in selecting and judging — was well-received, after a widely criticized installment the year before. Will this year’s list live up to 2009’s, or will it outdo it? In other words, can the Turner have two good years in a row?
It’s always fun to speculate about who will be shortlisted. I hope this year’s judges come up with some unexpected and exciting names — controversy, too, never goes amiss. But it’s not been a spectacular year for British art: there has been no equivalent to Roger Hiorns’s Seizure, which simply demanded to be considered. On the other hand, the usual suspects who might so easily have been on last year’s list are still around: don’t be surprised if the names Ryan Gander, Charles Avery or Susan Philipsz appear in the papers next week. Last year’s Turner exhibition featured no film or video for the first time in donkey’s years, so perhaps they will go the other way and select a video artist such as Hilary Lloyd or a filmmaker such as Rosalind Nashashibi.
But actually, one British artist has genuinely made an impact this year. 12 months ago I wrote here that I had decided not to nominate Banksy for the Turner shortlist: some people seemed to think I had stopped him being on it and that he was being considered seriously by the rest of the jury. In fact, as far as I know, I was the only juror considering him. In the end, he didn’t seem to be doing much that was new — but this year it’s a different story. In the last 12 months his museum show in Bristol drew delighted crowds and his film Exit Through the Gift Shop revealed a humor about his own enterprise that contrasts wonderfully with the dull arrogance of a Hirst. So for my money Banksy should be on the Turner shortlist this year. It’s a no-brainer. I wonder if the jury will agree. We’ll know on Tuesday.
Which of the following is FALSE about Banksy?
选项
A、The author once nominated Banksy.
B、Banksy did not win the Turner Prize.
C、The author has more confidence in Banksy for this year’s Turner Prize.
D、Banksy has a very successful museum show this year.
答案
A
解析
细节题。 “Banksy”是定位关键词,所有内容均出现在最后一段。作者曾经考虑过Banksy,但是最终因其他评委都不考虑,所以没有提名他,选项A错误,应选择。再看其他选项,B说Banksy去年没有获奖,正确,因为他连提名都没有。C说作者对Banksy今年能获奖有信心,文中“so for my money Banksy should be on the Turner shortlist this year”可佐证。D选项说Banksy今年办了一个非常成功的博物馆秀,正确,文中提到“his museum show in Bristol drew delighted crowds”。
