Turner Prize 2011: And The Nominees Are...

Who cares?
Fagburn will be rooting for Hilary Lloyd and her racy installations such as Man (above) and Trousers.
"In Man, six projectors cast different videos made with what appears to be a hand-held camera," writes critic Rye Holmboe. "Each concentrates on a separate part of a photograph of a man in underwear. It looks like one of those pictures you come across in the window of a Soho bookshop. In Man, however, the various perspectives are anti-voyeuristic. The spectator is twice removed from the subject-matter."
Yeah - whatever.
For the artistic record, Hilary Lloyd is - unlike say Hilary Benn - a woman.
