Tracey Emin

// I CRIED BECAUSE I LOVE YOU //

Lehmann Maupin and White Cube present ‘I Cried Because I Love You’, a joint exhibition by Tracey Emin taking place across both gallery spaces in Hong Kong and marking the artist’s first solo presentation in Greater China.

“I look at myself, and I paint myself, but they’re portraits of my mind, of my deepest thoughts.”

For this major project, Emin has envisaged a continuous exhibition of painting, embroidery, and neon across two spaces that reflect the diversity of her challenging and deeply poetic work across a wide range of media. She draws on subjects that are intimately bound up with her own biography, recalling events, dreams or emotional states in works that are starkly honest and personal, yet familiar and universal.
