An artist who uses make-up and soil to create sculptures is one of four up for this year’s prestigious Turner Prize.<\/p>\n
Glasgow-based Karla Black’s unorthodox materials include lipstick, Vaseline, nail varnish and eye shadow.<\/p>\n
Martin Boyce, whose installations are inspired by concrete trees, is also shortlisted, as is George Shaw, who only uses enamel paint in his work.<\/p>\n
Hilary Lloyd, who portrays construction sites using video screens, is the final contender for the \u00a325,000 prize.<\/p>\n
Artworks by each artist will be exhibited in Gateshead from October, with the winner to be announced on 5 December.<\/p>\n
The runners-up will receive \u00a35,000 at the ceremony, to take place – like the exhibition – at the Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art.<\/p>\n
Set up in 1984, the award is given to a British artist under 50 for “an outstanding exhibition or other presentation of their work in the 12 months preceding”.<\/p>\n
Previous Turner winners include Grayson Perry, Damien Hirst, Anish Kapoor and Rachel Whiteread.<\/p>\n
Black, 38, has been shortlisted for work shown at Berlin’s Galerie Capitain Petzel, while Boyce – also a Scot – has been singled out for his solo exhibition at the Garleie Eva Presenhuber in Zurich.<\/p>\n
Shaw’s paintings, which depict the Coventry area he grew up in, were displayed at the Baltic, while Lloyd earned her nomination with a solo show at London’s Raven Row gallery.<\/p>\n
Last year’s prize went to sound artist Susan Philipsz, for an installation that featured her singing three versions of a Scottish lament.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
