Gavin Turk: ‘The Use Of Rubbish In Art’

Gavin Turk’s work has been collected by many, including Charles Saatchi, who exhibited Turk’s artwork at the ‘Sensations’ exhibition at the Royal Academy in 1997. Gavin was also considered to be one of the Young British Artists. Turk’s 3D works include objects cast into bronze and then painted to appear as the original object. These include bronze sculptures of plastic rubbish bags, entitled ‘Bag’, (2000) and for which he was awarded the Jack Goldhill sculpture prize.
