Tracey Emin

Image via WikipediaTracey Emin’s work has a parallel in popular culture, as her work is almost excruciatingly autobiographical, so we have seen the rise of the reality television show in which a wider part of the community seek to bare their innermost secrets in exchange for their brief moment in the spotlight. Emin’s art has altered the public perception of what is acceptable as art with the various deeply personal strands of information she has chosen to display. Her soul baring art, and the media hype it has generated has made her one of the most widely publicly recognizable British artists.
