by Kwan Kiu Leung (Author)

The book provides a comparison of the work of Tracey Emin and He Chengyao in a global contemporary art context. It demonstrates why their work constitutes not only the self, but they practice an ontological identification relationship between subjectivity and art practice that exhibits three aspects of their subjectivity: performativity, visibility, and univocity. Furthermore, it reveals how their naked self-portraits create a new kind of nude.
