NEW YORK, NY.- Compiled in close collaboration with the artist and unprecedented in its scope, this definitive book collects ten years of Tracey Emins drawings, paintings, sculptures, appliqués 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 publicized contemporary British artists and continues to stir as much controversy as she does acclaim.
Moving chronologically through a prolific decade of workfrom major public installations to recent reflective paintings and sculpturesthis book shows a coherent vision that defies the idiosyncrasies of Emins evolution as an artist. The same mixture of anger, hope, curiosity, and vulnerability that informs her delicate drawings and handwritten neons can be felt in the darker tones of recent gouaches and the weight of later bronze pieces.
Jonathan Jones text places Emins 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.
Tracey Emin CBE has shown extensively internationally and is in museum collections around the world. In 2007 she represented Britain at the 52nd Venice Biennale and was made a Royal Academician in the same year. In 2013 Emin was appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire. Jonathan Jones is an art critic based in London. He has written for The Guardian since the 1990s and is the author of The Lost Battles: Leonardo, Michelangelo and the Artistic Duel that Defined the Renaissance as well as The Loves of the Artists. He is currently working on a history of British art from Hogarth to Tracey Emin.
