This sad, unseasonal hibernation seems against nature, but already it is generating its own intense kind of artistic energy. Tracy Emin, who made her name through minute and unsparing scrutiny of her private landscape, has published a daily diary. This chronicling of rebirth and renewal is another kind of threshold art, celebrating the new, the burgeoning and the yet-to-come. The source of art, he adds, is love. Ms Emin, in her diary, says something similar in her own style: “I’m going to feel warmth and safety and kindness and all that … AND I WILL BE LOVED BY YOU”.
