Since its inception in 1984, the Turner Prize has been awarded each year to 'an artist under fifty, born, living or working in Britain, for an outstanding exhibition or public presentation of their work anywhere in the world in the previous year.'

The Prize, named after celebrated English painter J.M.W. Turner, has since become one of the most prestigious awards for art in the world- previous nominees include the likes of Damien Hurst and Tracey Emin.
This year's shortlisted artists - Michael Dean, Anthea Hamilton, Helen Marten and Josephine Pryde- have certainly provided some of the world's most striking art pieces.
The exhibition is currently on show at the Tate Britain, with the £25,000 prize to be awarded on December 5. From colossal buttocks to two million pennies, these are this year's most outrageous pieces.
