About My Bed
My Bed is a work by the English artist Tracey Emin. First created in 1998, it was exhibited at the Tate Gallery in 1999 as one of the shortlisted works for the Turner Prize. It consisted of her bed with bedroom objects in an abject state, and gained much media attention.

Turnip Prize: Spoof art award in 25th year open to entries
By Louis InglisBBC News
The spoof Turnip Prize award for purposefully low-effort and cheap art is open to entries for its 25th year.
The Competition , held in Somerset, has entries from around The World but those that display " too much effort" are immediately disqualified.
Entries will be accepted from 1 to 21 November, and this year's winner will be announced on 6 December.
An exhibition of 16 former winners and notable entrants is also being held at the New Inn , Wedmore.
Competition organiser Trevor Prideaux told The Bbc : " It never ceases to amaze me how many entries we get every year.
" I never expected the award to run on for this long, but people want a Turnip and they want that recognition! "
The Turnip Prize started in 1999, when artist Tracey Emin 's 'My Bed ' was nominated for the prestigious Turner Prize. Emin's work sold to Charles Saatchi for £150,000 and was later auctioned at Christie's for over £2. 5m.
The Modern Art piece proved controversial and Prideaux took inspiration from that to create his own spoof art award.
Mr Prideaux said: " I think one of my favourite submissions that we've had was Chilli n' Minors, back in 2010.
" It kind of changed The Game for people that were entering.
" People realised they needed to be more topical. We Are Looking Forward to some more topical and interesting entries this year. "
