Turner Prize 08.

Mark Leckey "A witty meditation on the nature of film in popular culture taking in Felix the Cat, Homer Simpson, Titanic the movie and Philip Guston tonight helped Mark Leckey win what is still acknowledged as the country's most important contemporary art prize," writes Mark Brown in the Guardian. Nick Cave has announced the winner of this year's Turner Prize.

As part of the Guardian's special section on the Turner, you can watch curator Carolyn Kerr's quick video introduction to the four works that were nominated, read profiles of the artists and so forth.
