Item Number: 125504 Title: TRACEY EMIN : I Followed You to the Sun Author: Price: Not Available ISBN: 9780615768687 Description: New York: Lehmann Maupin, 2013. 29cm., hardcover, 64pp. illus. Summary : Regarded as one of the world’s leading contemporary artists, Tracey Emin (born 1963) has gained international acclaim for her blunt, personal and revealing style, which elicits a broad spectrum of emotions ranging from shock to empathy to self-reflection. Drawing on personal experience, Emin often reveals painful situations with brutal honesty and poetic humor. I Followed You to the Sun features a very personal collection of works titled the Lonely Chair drawings, which are published here for the first time. In this series of self-portraits, Emin depicts a solitary female in her signature gestural style. The images are drawn from photographs that Emin took of herself and convey poignant emotions of longing and sadness. Emin’s musings on love and loneliness are interspersed throughout the book and further illustrate the subconscious nature of the drawings. This artist’s book is published on the occasion of Emin’s exhibitions at both of Lehmann Maupin’s New York locations. We regret to inform you that this title is no longer available. P.O.
