Front Row is live from the 2021 Turner Prize Ceremony at Coventry Cathedral.

Pauline Black reflects on what it means to Coventry to host this year's Turner Prize exhibition as part of the City of Culture celebrations and curator Hammad Nasar explains how he put together an exhibition of work that's not usually shown in galleries.
