The judges for The Turner Prize announced Tuesday that sculptures of cartoon-like women with huge knobby breasts and disco-dancing Palestinians are among the works shortlisted for Britain's most prestigious and controversial art award.

Abstract painter Tomma Abts, video installation artist Phil Collins, billboard artist Mark Titchner and sculptor Rebecca Warren have been nominated for the 25,000-pound (47,000-dollar) award, says AFP.

The Turner Prize is renowned for favoring controversial conceptual works.

The annual honor, named after painter JMW Turner in 1984, is given to a British artist under 50 years old for outstanding efforts in the past 12 months.

Last year's award went to Simon Starling, who turned a shed into a boat then back into a shed.

Work by the shortlisted artists will go on display at London's Tate Britain gallery from October 3. The winner will be announced on December 4.
