Tracey Emin Video Works, 1995—2017

Tracey Emin Video Works, 1995—2017
Selected works

Xavier Hufkens is pleased to present Tracey Emin: Video Works, 1995—2017. With fifteen titles spanning a period of three decades, this is the first exhibition to survey Tracey Emin’s video art. Though they have received less visibility than the artist’s work in installation and painting, Emin’s films are a vital component of her oeuvre. Key works such as Why I never became a dancer (1995) and How it Feels (1996) are shown alongside rarely screened videos including Niagra (1997) and Love is a Strange Thing (2000). The works in this exhibition offer a window into Emin’s infamous world: from her earliest traumas and personal struggles, to her poetic, witty and often self-deprecating views on love and loneliness.

This online exhibition ended on 30 January 2022.
