In December 2003, a TV programme was broadcast live from one of the major events of the British contemporary art calendar, the Turner Prize. During the show, presenter Matt Collings and artist Tracey Emin talked at length about that year's shortlisted artists.When it came to an analysis of Grayson Perry, however, Emin could muster little more than a sardonic grin and the ambiguous comment: 'Grayson is pretty popular with the masses.' When the prize was announced later that evening and, against the odds, Perryhad won, Collings's response was less coy: a simple, and bewildered, 'Freaky!'
