Charles Darwent on the Venice Biennale 2011

13.06.11

'Black's work is tough as goats' knees – a Scottish Arte Povera, made of polythene sheeting and rubbed-in pigment, of next to nothing but intelligence and labour. Many Turner
Prizes go by when I don't care who wins; but I deeply want Black to get it this
year, if only as reward for my happiest half-hour of the 2011 Biennale.'
