| 'What would Turner have had to say about the Turner Prize? . He would have undoubtedly appreciated the new ways of looking at things that the late 20th century has granted artists.' |

Anthony Bailey Independent 25 October 1998
| 'Yet again the Turner shortlist spurns painting in favour of conceptualism.' |

William Packer Financial Times 10 November 1998
| 'Whether or not the Turner Prize manages to carry out its ostensible task of rewarding the best and most innovative young British artists, it consistently succeeds in entertaining its audience.' |

| 'Some see it as art. Others as simply a bit of a mess. Yesterday Tracey Emin's unmade bed at the Tate Gallery in London was bounced on, fought over and even tidied up.' |

Lucie Morris Daily Mail 25 October 1999
| 'This may no longer be Britain's most valuable prize, but it is a publicity goldmine. This is more precious than any lump sum to an artist; it is the foundation on which future careers are built.' |

The Times 20 October 1999
| 'The stupidest thing that gets said about her [Emin] (by lots of sensible ordinary people) is that a bed isn't art . can't be because "It's just an ordinary bed and I've got one like that". Oh it would have been art if it was a painting or if she'd carved it in marble. You known, shown some skill. Well it is art - it is one of her chosen ways of conveying a life. And it is an effective one. Emin can paint but it is not what she chooses to do now. She is an artist to her fingertips.' |
