Tracey Emin : Works 2007 - 2017

'This monograph examines a decade of the British contemporary artist's illustrious career, including an in-depth look at the varied works - paintings, sculptures, video stills, installations - that have made her one of today's most prolific and influential living talents' - Editorialist

Compiled in close collaboration with the artist, this handsome book collects ten years of Tracey Emin's drawings, paintings, sculptures, appliques and embroideries, neons, video stills, and installations.

A multimedia artist whose intensely personal work blurs the boundaries between art and life, Emin remains one of the most highly publicised contemporary British artists and continues to stir as much controversy as she has acclaim. Moving chronologically through a prolific decade of work from major public installations to recent reflective paintings and sculptures this book shows a coherent vision that defies the idiosyncrasies of Emin's evolution as an artist.

The same mixture of anger, hope, curiosity, and vulnerability that informs her delicate drawings and handwritten neon works can be felt in the darker tones of recent monoprints and the weight of later bronze pieces. Written by Jonathan Jones, whose text places Emin's work in a broad art-historical context and sees this recent decade of her artwork as an entry point to examining her full career, this is a beautiful monograph on one of the world's most influential living artists.
