Out of five social change groups that have competed this year for the Turner Prize, the UK’s most important visual arts award, the jury selected a group of 11 Belfast-based artists who worked on topics such as abortion, rights strange, mental health, gentrification and access to social protection, and the Irish question. The £ 25,000 (€ 29,300) award will be donated to the Array collective in 2021, highlighting artistic practice performed “in the complex, divided and sectarian context of modern society,” the chairman of the jury said. , Alex Farquharson, diary quote The keeper…
“They deal with very important issues, but carry a sense of humor, pleasure, joy, hope and hospitality – often through the absurd, camp and theater – to an extremely tense situation, ”added the director of Tate Britain, emphasizing the“ liberating and post-sectarian ”spirit of collective thinking, but also the ease and“ carnival feeling ”with which they tackle the problems of destruction. such as LGBT and women’s rights.
The installation with which Array Collective won the award, Ball Drutayba, copies one a pub illegal Irish, while evoking the ceremonial structures characteristic of Celtic culture and signs of protest culture such as flags and banners used during demonstrations, in this case protecting the reproductive rights of non-heterosexual populations and condemning conversion treatments. A group hit hard by the struggle for independence in Northern Ireland describes it as “a place where we can come together beyond sectarian barriers.” It is assumed that politics can and should be done on the street, but “more fun and less belligerent,” as critic David Sillito notes on the BBC.
“In a community where protest marches and street art are too often attributed to sectarian meanings, the Arrays want to create new events and new symbols, as well as disrupt local mythology in order to respond to different identities that cross the usual dividing lines,” the BBC says. journalist.
Considering the awarding of the prize “surreal,” which has never been in Northern Ireland until now, the group has already announced that it intends to use the money to secure a lease for its studio in Belfast.
London-based bands Black Obsidian Sound System (BOSS) and Cooking Sections – the first non-white people – also competed for the prize. strange, trans and intersex are committed to a new definition of culture audio system from African diasporas; the second focused on food demonstrating unsustainable production and consumption dynamics – the Cardiff-based Gentle / Radical project, which uses art as a tool for social change, and the Hastings-based Project Art Works group. Each of the finalist projects received £ 10,000.
The decision to restrict list this year has been controversial for artists who work together and collectively, but Alex Farquharson recalls that in other disciplines such as theater, film or performance, this is common practice.
Last year, due to the pandemic crisis, the Turner Prize was suspended for the first time since its inception in 1984, but in return for its € 10,000 scholarships, ten artists were awarded. In 2019, the jury, by an unprecedented decision and of its own free will, decided to present the prize to the four finalists.

The dollar continues to reflect the political scenario
Yesterday, financial agents evaluated the opposite decision of the Federal Supreme Court (STF) regarding the so-called secret budget. In addition, a decision was made by STF Minister Gilmar Méndez to issue an injunction that would exclude the Bolsa Família from the spending cap rule, with investors trying to understand how this measure would affect the processing of the transitional PEC in the Chamber of Deputies. Oh this PEC!!!!
Since he is an exchange investor, any reading that the budget will be exceeded or become more flexible will negatively affect the exchange market, whether through the PEC or in any other way. We will continue with volatility today.
Looking beyond, the US Central Bank (Fed), although slowing down the pace of monetary tightening at its December meeting, issued a tougher-than-expected statement warning that its fight against inflation was not yet over, raising fears that rising US interest rates will push the world’s largest economy into recession.
The currency market continues to react to political news. The voting on the PEC is saved for today. It is expected that it will indeed be reviewed to open the way tomorrow for discussions on the 2023 budget.
For today on the calendar we will have an index of consumer confidence in the eurozone. Good luck and good luck in business!!

The EU has reached a political agreement on limiting gas prices – 19.12.2022
The agreement was approved by a supermajority at a ministerial meeting of member states in Brussels, Belgium, after months of discussions about the best way to contain the rise in natural gas prices in the bloc caused by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. .
The value set by the countries is well below the proposal made by the European Commission, the EU’s executive body, in November: 275 EUR/MWh. However, the countries leading the cap campaign were in favor of an even lower limit, around 100 EUR/MWh.
Germany, always wary of price controls, voted in favor of 180 euros, while Austria and the Netherlands, also skeptical of the cap, abstained. Hungary, the most pro-Russian country in the EU, voted against.
The instrument will enter into force on 15 February, but only if natural gas prices on the Amsterdam Stock Exchange exceed 180 euros/MWh for three consecutive days. In addition, the difference compared to a number of global benchmarks should be more than 35 euros.
Italy, the EU’s biggest supporter of the ceiling, has claimed responsibility for the measure. “This is a victory for Italy, which believed and worked for us to reach this agreement,” Environment and Energy Minister Gilberto Picetto tweeted.
“This is a victory for Italian and European citizens who demand energy security,” he added.
Currently, the gas price in Amsterdam is around 110 EUR/MWh, which is already a reflection of the agreement in Brussels – in August the figure even broke the barrier of 340 EUR/MWh.
However, Russia has already threatened to stop exports to countries that adhere to the ceiling. (ANSA).
