Tracy Emin

This book’s extensive text is based on a long friendship and hundreds of of hours of discussion between Emin and Carl Freedman, himself a renowned gallerist and art publisher. It covers her work in all media: drawing, sculpture, film, photography, and writing. In her multimedia work she uses sewing, neons, videos, Super-8 films, photographs and watercolours, and is also a compulsive writer. Emin’s art is highly confessional, her life and her art inextricably entwined, and she is frequently in the public eye, meeting with equal amounts of controversy and acclaim.
