Jake Chapman
Jake Chapman was born in Cheltenham in 1966. He is a contemporary artist who makes iconoclastic sculpture, prints, films (such as 'Sacrificial Mutilation in Modern Art,' 'Good Art for Bad People,' 'The Organ Grinder's Monkey,' 'The Marriage of Reason and Squalor,' 'Accelerate or Die!'), writing and installations that examine, with searing wit and energy, contemporary politics, religion, and morality, apocalyptic snapshots, emulating aspects of human behaviour with a trademark subversive wit, the conflation of the exotic fetish and the cheap fast-food giveaway, imperialism and globalisation and erotomanic sculpture. He has exhibited at Serpentine Gallery, Tate Britain and Tate Liverpool (amongst many many others!), but lost the Turner Prize to Grayson Perry, Tate Britain in 2003.
