White Cube presents a solo exhibition of works by Tracey Emin, coinciding with the 2026 edition of Art Basel Paris. Bringing together intimately sized bronze sculptures and new paintings, the exhibition explores themes of desire, forbidden love and the plaintive anguish wrought from their complexities.

Expanding on her 2024 exhibition ‘I followed you to the end’ at White Cube Bermondsey, Emin’s latest works interweave autobiographical elements throughout, featuring depictions of figures in the throes of becoming, scenes from the artist’s home in Margate with her beloved cats, and her experience with life-threatening illness and loss.

The exhibition follows the critically acclaimed ‘A Second Life’ at Tate Modern, London (27 February – 31 August 2026), which travels to Louisiana Museum, Denmark (8 October 2026 – 18 April 2027).

Concurrently, Art Basel Paris, White Cube and the Cité de l’architecture et du patrimoine will present three large-scale bronze sculptures by Tracey Emin at Parvis des Droits-de-l’Homme. Installed together, I lay here for you (2018), I Followed You to the End (2024), and I Will Not Be Alone (2025) explore the transformation of a female body as the figure moves from kneeling to seated, tracing a journey from surrender to resilience.
