Title:
Holiday Inn
Date:
1998
Object Name:
Artists' Book
Description:
Tracey Emin's work is characterized by her use of everyday objects-neon signage, hotel stationery, her own bed-to convey autobiographical material in a candid and confessional style. Emin was a key member of the Young British Artists (YBAs), a group of artists who began exhibiting together in the late-1980s in East London. The artist's book Holiday Inn is representative of Emin's penchant for wordplay, crafting unique phrases and idioms and presenting them in a rough and ready, unedited format. Published by Gesellschaft fur Aktuelle Kunst, Bremen. 5 ¾ x 4 inches.
