TRACEY EMIN
Written by Tracey Emin and Carl Freedman, Edited by Honey Luard
Rizzoli

The most highly publicized of the infamous Young British Artists, Emin has stirred as much controversy as she has acclaim, being both highly personal and extremely original in her art. Emin's work is engaging, titillating, disturbing, and startlingly confessional. One of her most famous pieces is Everyone I Ever Slept With 1963-1995, a tent appliquéd with names. Another notorious work, My Bed —the scene where she spent four days contemplating suicide—was exhibited at Tate Britain with which the artist was short-listed for the Turner prize in 1999. Compiled in close collaboration with the artist herself, this is the ultimate book on Emin, featuring drawings, paintings, sculptures, appliqués and embroideries, neon and video stills as well as her own writing.
