The Facts
On September 24, 2026, White Cube announced that three large-scale bronze sculptures by Tracey Emin will be installed at Parvis des Droits-de-l’Homme in Paris from October 14 to November 1, 2026. The presentation, organized with Art Basel Paris and the Cité de l’architecture et du patrimoine, marks the first public programme project by Art Basel Paris at the site. The works—"I lay here for you" (2018), "I Followed You to the End" (2024), and "I Will Not Be Alone" (2025)—trace the transformation of a female body from kneeling to seated, exploring themes of surrender and resilience.
The Signal
The exhibition signals a strategic expansion of Art Basel Paris beyond the fairgrounds into public space, aligning with a broader trend of art fairs commissioning site-specific installations. For collectors and curators, Emin’s bronze works represent a mature phase of her practice, moving from intimate, confessional works to monumental public sculpture. The presentation also reinforces White Cube’s commitment to placing its artists in high-profile institutional and public contexts.
