| Description |
Published to coincide with the exhibition at Turner Contemporary. The publication includes a foreword by Director Victoria Pomery, essays by art historian and critic William Feaver and writer Jeanette Winterson and extracts from The Vanishing Lake, Tracey's novel in progress.
Tracey Emin's first major solo exhibition at Turner Contemporary is conceived specially for Margate, where Emin grew up and which has provided inspiration for many of her most famous art works.
The exhibition explores the themes of love, sensuality and romanticism in Emin's oeuvre, featuring both new and existing works including drawings, monoprints, sculptures and neons.
The exhibition's central themes continue in a display of paintings, sketches and watercolours of erotic subjects by Tracey Emin as well as JMW Turner and Auguste Rodin. |
