Australian musician, writer, composer and icon Nick Cave is to find himself in the unfamiliar position of following in the footsteps of Madonna – by presenting the winner of the Turner Prize.

Cave will hand out the award at a ceremony to be held at the Tate Britain on December the 1st.

This year's Turner Prize exhibition features installations including a mannequin sat on a toilet and a short film of a woman smashing China tea cups on the floor.

Four, relatively unknown, artists have been shortlisted for the prize - Goshka Macuga, Runa Islam, Cathy Wilkes and Mark Leckey.
