Description:Tracey Emin has undergone an incredible metamorphosis from a young, unknown artist into the ‘bad girl’ of Young British Art. Today, however, she is arguably the doyenne of the British art scene and attracts more acclaim than controversy. Her work is known by a wide audience largely because of this constant media presence.In Tracey Emin: Art Into Life, Deborah Cherry and Alexandra Kokoli examine how Emin’s art, life and celebrity status have become inextricably intertwined and with contributions from scholars, art historians and curators, they offer a vast array of new perspectives on her work. These viewpoints explore Emin’s intersectional identity; her gender identifications; sexuality; and the Turkish-Cypriot diaspora; whilst also examining the craft versus fine art debate and issues surrounding biography and performativity. With its attention to specific works, discussion of central themes in Emin’s art and an accessible theorisation of her creative practice, this book will be of value to scholars and students of art history, along with a wider readership.
