We should nominate our Princess & The Pea installation plus out "One Of These People Is Alive"series of X-Rays.

And Mark S's going to the Tate Modern to see the Turner Prize last year.

i nominate myself and talitha (see upthread)

Pete, conceptual art is one thing, art which has remained at the concept stage is another entirely.

Still think princess / pea thing is a great idea, though not perhaps quite as great as the urban myths plan.

CONCEPT ART!!!!! Where is the point in carrying it out, the concept is the key thing. And frankly how are we going to talk the Rankin' Miss P into it?

You still haven't managed to talk me into it for god's sake.

haha it is not upthread it is on another thread: more turners for me!!

also bah talitha just phoned to say let's meet for lunch except i was at another desk and didn't get her message till too late = hat trick of turners but the third is tinged with sadness

Emma, no disrespect intended but I think we could ask several people whose qualification as Princess are a match for yours. You would naturally be our first choice but your non-participation would not be the end of the project.

Miss P, on the other hand...

Yes Tim but the fact that I refused a) despite being the art collective's chum and b)when pissed makes me think that you'd have a snowball's chance of getting anyone else to do it.

― Emma, Thursday, 18 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

Oh but for *art*, Emma.

― Tim, Thursday, 18 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

I am a philistine I'm afraid.

― Emma, Thursday, 18 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

Poor Emma you must be insecure about art.

the prize is only £25,000?

― treeship., Wednesday, 4 December 2019 12:34 (four years ago) link

25k for the winner, 5k for other 3. so they split the 40k total 4 equal ways.
