An exhibition by Tracey Emin at Hayward Gallery is sure to get fans of her work excited during 2011 as the notorious British artist holds a massive retrospective of her work. Featuring pieces spanning her career, the show is certain to cause much controversy in the media and divide opinion between her adoring public and the critics.
Tracey Emin at Hayward Gallery
Having risen to artistic fame back in the early nineties as one of the Young British Artists, Tracey Emin has gone onto hold several major shows at some of the most famous contemporary galleries in the world and continue to court controversy with the very personal subject matter of her work. Asides from several major collective exhibitions featuring her work, this is the first large London survey of Emin's art for many years.
Mixed media
Bringing together the full gamut of her artistic skills, the exhibition by Tracey Emin at Hayward Gallery, entitled Love is What You Want, features a huge range of artwork, varying in medium and subject matter. Painting, sculpture, prints and photography are all on show throughout the gallery, with work taking over both floors and the outdoor terraces too. As the show includes both rarely seen early works from the beginning of Emin's career and more recent large scale installations, visitors will be able to gain full insight into the mind of the artist and experience many biographical details of her life, as told through her intensely personal work.
