    IRISH-BORN artist Duncan Campbell has won Britain's prestigious Turner Prize for an "essay film" which draws on an array of sources, including African art, the Irish Republican Army, dance and Marxism.

    The annual award for contemporary art was presented to Campbell by actor Chiwetel Ejiofor, the star of 12 Years a Slave, on Monday at Tate Britain, which oversees the often controversial prize.
