Sir Kyffin Williams, one of the UK’s leading painters, attacks contemporary art and artists. “Speaking at the opening of the Oriel Gwyngyll gallery in Llanfairpwll, north Wales, on Monday night, he blamed the art establishment, including the arts councils and competitions like the Turner Prize and the Welsh-funded Artes Mundi. “Nobody ever likes the work in the Turner Prize. Conceptual installation art is worthless and people don’t want it. Galleries are desperately trying to find young artists who can draw – even in places like Cardiff and London’.”
