Tracey Emin: A Second Life

This landmark exhibition traces 40 years of Tracey Emin's practice, showcasing career‑defining works alongside pieces never exhibited before. Through painting, video, textiles, neons, writing, sculpture and installation, Emin explores passion, pain and healing using the female body as a central motif.

Dame Tracey Emin is one of the most important contemporary artists of her generation. Catapulted into the public eye in the 1990s with iconic works like the Turner Prize nominated My Bed, her work sparked fierce critical and public debate and challenged what art could be.

Broadening Emin's story, this exhibition celebrates her raw and confessional approach as she asks profound questions on love, trauma and autobiography. It also highlights her lifelong commitment to painting, presenting recent works as the culmination of how she channels her life into art.
