Keith Tyson - 2002 Turner Prize

33-year-old Keith Tyson with his piece 'Bubble Chambers' after winning the 2002 Turner prize at the Tate Britain Gallery, London. Mr Tyson, *..known for casting the entire contents of a Kentucky Fried Chicken menu in lead at the behest of a computer landed the prize for his science-inspired works - yet despite gaining renown for some of his wackier stunts, his victory was a rare Turner triumph for a painter. He had been favourite to take the 20,000 prize after displaying a vivid collection of thought-provoking works at the Turner exhibition at Tate Britain, where the award was made at a reception tonight. Judges praised "the strong visual energy of his work across a wide range of media including drawing, painting, sculpture and installation". (Photo by PA Images via Getty Images)
