Tracey Emin: Those who suffer Love

Opens: 28/05/2009 Closes: 03/07/2009 White Cube, London
Emin’s first exhibition in London for over four years is a surprisingly modest affair, celebrating that rather humble art medium – drawing. Emin has described her new work as simple and straight to the point; however, you should expect this point to be unnervingly sharp.

The Telegraph“Emin is certainly no fool...” This is a marking-time exhibition that is unlikely to seriously enhance or diminish Emin's reputation. Where it scores best is in her use of traditionally feminine media...

Guardian“A humble, modest, industriously domesticated craftswoman...” Perhaps Emin is at last admitting that art, at least for her, is a species of self-abuse...
