Tate Britain in Altercation with Press Photographers Over Turner Prize

Speaking of museum-based controversies, the Tate Britain has suffered through some particularly bad press this week relating to the Turner Prize. In what already seemed like an annual event where the press bashes the prize itself and what gets nominated (with the exception of the joy over Richard Wright‘s win, they’ve done it this year, did it last year, and for as far back as we can remember), the Tate added fuel to the fire with the opening of an exhibition of the Turner finalists by demanding that press photographers only publish images that wouldn’t “result in any adverse publicity” reports
