“我的作品是关于时间和岁月的人生仪式，以及我们总是孤独的这样一种简单的认识。”——崔西·艾敏，2014年7月
    ‘The work is about rites of passage, of time and age, and the simple realisation that we are always alone.’
Tracey Emin, July 2014
    

    

    

    

    
    10月7日，崔西·艾敏新的重要个展“最后一次伟大的冒险是你” 在伦敦Bermondsey空间开幕，这是崔西五年以来在伦敦画廊的第一次个展。作品聚焦于青铜雕塑、水粉画、油画、大型的刺绣和霓虹灯作品。本次展览按年代记录了作品的反思性特质，这是崔西在她生活中不断用直率地批判来实践的作品。反映在风格上，展览中的作品是她多年发展的结果，从青铜雕塑到油画作品。在青铜作品的雕塑形式中有一种复杂性：既健壮又温柔——这样的特质表明了对于材料、构成和主题上的精湛理解。
    Oct 7th, ‘The Last Great Adventure is You’, a major new exhibition by Tracey Emin was opened in White Cube London Bermondsey. This is her first at the London gallery in five years. Featuring bronze sculptures, gouaches, paintings, large-scale embroideries and neon works, the exhibition chronicles the contemplative nature of work by an artist who has consistently examined her life with excoriating candour.
    

    

    

    
    “石窟”（2014）是一件内嵌的、像洞穴一样的室内外形的雕塑，它给予了一个类似艺术家自身写照的孤独身影一处圣所。然而在作品“鸟”（2014）的肌肉形式中和谐地让兼有庄重和优雅的曲线结合在一起。一系列青铜作品的浅浮雕斑块所描绘的人物形象以一种光与影之间的微妙关系显现了一种模糊而又清晰的特质。
    Reflective in tone, the works in the exhibition are the result of many years’ development, from the bronze sculptures – the most significant body she has made to date – to the works on canvas. There is a complexity in the sculptural form of the bronzes, simultaneously robust yet tender, that points to a consummate understanding of material, composition and subject matter. In Grotto (2014), a tessellated, cave-like chamber gives sanctuary to a solitary figure as artist proxy, while the muscular form of Bird (2014) harmonises sinuous lines with gravity and grace. A series of bronze bas relief plaques portray figures that appear amorphous yet distinct, with subtle interplay between light and shadow.
    

    

    
    此外，绘画作品首先显得简介与直观，它们中的许多都是经过几年时期的涂抹、擦除和覆盖的结果。崔西以一种回顾的方式反复地回归画布，通过短暂地过渡来修正和重新考虑她自己在绘画中的位置。标题“最后一次伟大的冒险是你”在展览中用一件同名的霓虹灯来呈现，这是崔西·艾敏原本有意为“别人”所做的一个参考。事实上，自从崔西开始创作这件作品以来的两年多时间里，她开始意识到这一暗示再次回到了她自己身上。
    While the paintings at first appear simple and immediate, many of them are the result of application, obliteration and layering over a period of several years. Emin repeatedly returns to the canvases as a means of reviewing, revising and reconsidering her own position in relation to painting through temporal passages.The title ‘The Last Great Adventure is You’, which is transcribed in neon within the exhibition, was originally intended by Emin as a reference to the ‘other person’; however, over the two year period since she began creating this body of work, she came to realise that the implication was once again coming back to the self.
