"Gavin Turk makes sculpture, drawings and assemblages that investigate what it means to be an artist. He is interested in the way that fame and celebrity affect the understanding of art and the artists that make it. He stages or remakes iconic artworks from the past, although these borrowings from the history of art are fused with references to contemporary popular culture. In doing so he emphasises the power of artists to transform 'things', while questioning the uniqueness of creativity." Text courtesy of Tate Britain, 2003.
