The artist behind the shed that was disassembled on the banks of the Rhine, the planks turned into a boat, sailed to Basle and then reassembled as a shed has won the Turner Prize. Asked what he intended to
do with his prize money, Starling said he wanted to throw a replica
Henry Moore sculpture into Lake Ontario.
