	3am ESSAY: “Going Down” The Art of Tracey Emin
		Emin is a diverse artist, experimenting with different and “found” materials, turning her exhibits into theatrical environments, always more interested in tackling the problems of her own life than the more limited problems of formalist art.
		Emin has “taken” with the media, becoming an embodiment of this zeitgeist and thus is as qualified to model designer dresses, write candidly of sexual adventure, as to talk about her art.
		Emin frequently speaks of her teenage anguish, her art is based on autobiographical musings, the seething longings and dreams of a prisoner in a suburban wasteland.

	Telegraph \| News \| The Emin image Tracey does not want you to see
		TRACEY EMIN has become rich and famous by thrusting unpalatable details of her private life in front of the public, but the artist who gave the world the soiled masterpiece Unmade Bed is not so keen to share some images of herself.
		Emin is uncharacteristically reluctant to endorse the decision of an old friend to exhibit photographs that include one showing she has no front teeth.
		Emin's former boyfriend, Billy Childish, who features alongside her in a number of the photographs, said the missing teeth were caused by a calcium deficiency, exacerbated by an incident with her brother.

	The Believer - Interview with Tracey Emin
		Ever since Tracey Emin first shook up the British art world in the mid-1990s, rampaging through it in a fragile drunken rage, she has remained one of the most fascinating and controversial of the current crop of conceptual artists.
		Emin’s work has played with the world of words from the beginning, and it has often been through language, as opposed to images, that she’s shocked her critics.
		TRACEY EMIN: With a lot of the things I’ve done, I certainly wouldn’t lay myself on the line and say that’s the absolute truth, because it’s my memory, and what happened between that moment ten or fifteen years ago and now… there’s a lot of gray area.

	New Statesman - Grand aesthetic of the dumped. We have all slept with Tracey Emin. Her art is a desperate plea for love ...
		You went out with Tracey Emin - you loved her, you had fantastic sex with her, you shared good times and bad, you were soul-mates (at least, Tracey thought you were) - and then, you heartless bastard, you dumped her.
		Emin's address to her audience, her 100 million massed exes, comes as a drunken, midnight phone call.
		The relationship of lover to lover, perfected in one form (dumpee to dumper) by Tracey Emin, isn't a bad non-academic way of analysing the stance adopted towards their public by the best-known of the young British artists.

	EGG . Kiss & Tell . Tracey Emin \| PBS
		Emin first attracted the art world's attention with a tent embroidered with the names of anyone she had ever slept with (from her twin brother in the womb to past boyfriends).
		Emin continues to draw upon a rich variety of media, creating photographs and films, poems and blankets, and drawings and mixed media installations that spare few personal details.
		Emin explains why she's put her life on display and the repercussions she's suffered for it.

	Tracey Emin profile
		Emin has grabbed headlines for the graphic nature of some of her pieces, most notoriously "My Bed" (1998), in which the artist's unmade bed is strewn with the detritus of relationships past - including used condoms.
		In addition to her art, Emin is a writer contributing to magazines and a major book about her art is slated for publication this year.
		Unfortunately, Emin's work has not as yet been exhibited in Australia, but as her reputation grows and she is increasingly recognised as a cutting-edge artist with a fine grasp of her material, an exhibition on these shores can't be too far off.

	Tate Magazine Issue 1
		When I went to see Emin in her studio, she was hard at work at a blanket based on an incident that happened just before her birth, when her heavily-pregnant mother had been spat at in the street in her home town of Margate and called a nigger-lover (Emin's father is Turkish).
		Emin isn't likely to leave her life behind any time soon, but she is beginning to integrate other, wider elements into its expression.
		Tracey Emin exhibitions this autumn include the Lehmann Maupin Gallery, New York (21 September to 19 October), Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam (18 October to 31 December), and Modern Art Oxford (9 November to 12 January).

	Tracey Emin, AGNSW - smh.com.au
		Emin was catapulted into public attention in 1995 when she showed in the seminal contemporary British art exhibition, Minky Manky.
		Emin is now so successful she has sponsorship arrangements with the likes of fashion designer Vivienne Westwood and Beck's beer.
		On Saturday Emin said these were the only sandals, besides her espadrilles, that "didn't make my feet smelly" and she wept when she tried to throw them away.

	Millennium Development Goals - Tracey Emin
		Born in London in 1963 and brought up in Margate, Kent, Tracey Emin completed an MA in painting at the Royal College of Art, and her interest in the expressionist works of Munch and Schiele informed her early paintings.
		Emin’s art is one of disclosure, using her life events in works ranging from storytelling, drawing, filmmaking, installation, painting, neon, photography, appliquéd blankets and sculpture.
		Emin exposes herself, her hopes, humiliations, failures and successes in an incredibly direct manner.

	Tracey Emin (nominee 1999) \| \| Guardian Unlimited Arts
		Emin's ability to grab headlines meant that, like many of the YBAs, she was pigeonholed from the beginning.
		Because Emin is so fond of the sound of her own voice, it can be hard to get through to the actual work (art critic Julian Stallabrass said sniffily: "It's so unmediated, I wonder if it's actually art.").
		Emin's Self Portrait at her White Cube exhibition in 2001 was a 17-feet-tall helter-skelter, built from reclaimed wood, with birds flying out of the top.

	Tracey Emin - Something For The Children - Victoria and Albert Museum
		Tracey Emin employs a wide range of media - prints, drawing, performance, installation, video, film, embroidery, appliqué, neon and written text - to create works that expose, with uncompromising detail, her own life and personal experiences.
		However, rather than rebuilding an existing structure or place from her past, she uses the new shed to create an environment constructed from personal possessions that she has either made or constructed: drawings, pieces of furniture, patchwork curtains, a lamp, cat pictures, figurines, an appliqué Ouija board...
		Seminal projects include the 'Tracey Emin Museum', where for three years she was artist, curator and creator; the tent 'Everyone I Have Ever Slept With 1963-95', which has become an icon of contemporary British art; and 'My Bed', which she exhibited in the 1999 Turner Prize exhibition.

		Emin’s own life experience is the basis for her often controversial artworks which cross a wide variety of media including painting, photography, filmmaking, installation, appliquéd blankets, storytelling and sculpture.
		Emin’s life and art are closely related – her artworks are confessional; exposing her hopes, fears and humiliations in an extremely frank and direct manner.
		Emin came to international attention in 1997 with her solo exhibition I Need Art Like I Need God at the South London Gallery and the inclusion of her work Everyone I Have Ever Slept With (1963-1995) in the major international touring exhibition Sensation: Young British Artists.

		Tracey Emin was born in London in 1963, along with her brother Paul.

	Tracey Emin at Lehmann Maupin Art in America - Find Articles
		Anyone thinking about Tracey Emin's work can't help but take her tumultuous life into consideration, because to date it's been her main subject matter.
		We know about her childhood in the small, British seaside town of Margate; that she was raped and robbed of her childhood at the age of 13; the reasons why she never became a dancer; two traumatic abortions; persistent self-loathing; substance abuse in the extreme; lots of messy sexual exploits; and the list goes on.
		Now that Emin has moved beyond the brash, difficult, revelatory years of her 30s, she demonstrated here that she has much more going for her than her big mouth, rough past and insistent sexuality.

	Jeanette Winterson - Journalism - The Times : Books - Tracey Emin
		You may feel that someone like Tracey Emin, who has fiercely put herself into everything she does, including lists of lovers, and unmade condom-scattered beds, cannot claim any privacy, nor any right to an art that exists without her.
		Tracey's success is not in her showmanship, it is in the curious fact of her alchemy; she has been able to turn her own private world into one that speaks clearly to people all over the world.
		Tracey is different because she has transformed the personal into the public.

		Tracey Emin, the well-known modern artist who should have won the 1999 Turner Prize, but didn't, produces autobiographical art -- art which is about herself.
		Well, Emin's controlled exhibition of self clearly has something in common with all those websites which people make about themselves [this one is not excluded from this point].
		She would just launch into talking about herself in a way that would have been quite strange if it was anyone else, and actually was quite strange when she did it, but she did it so often it began to seem normal.
