Turner prize winners call on Tate to halt redundancies

An open letter protesting that “multi-racial, multi-ethnic, multilingual workers from low-income backgrounds” are about to be cut out of the arts sector has been signed by 300 artists, including several former Turner prize winners. The letter, in support of  Tate workers who are on strike over the 313 job cuts across Tate Enterprises, is demanding that the organisation uses 10% of the £7m it received from the government to stop redundancies.
