Through a selection of historic and more recent works from public and private collections, this eponymous catalogue presents 30 years of Emin’s work, whose controversial and lacerating aesthetics has strongly influenced the image of the female body in contemporary art.Emin candidly reveals her hopes and humiliations with an immediacy and a sexually provocative attitude that takes cues from artists such as Egon Schiele and Edvard Munch. Vulnerability, crudity and physicality are all present in her works such as 'My Bed' or her recent 'Lovers Grave' paintings, creating an oeuvre in which desire and suffering go hand in hand.
