Catalogue Note
"I've Got it All" is an iconic work of Tracey Emin, realized one year after the controversy following the presentation of her work "My Bed" for the Turner Prize in 1999.
The work presented here is an enlarged Polaroid which assembles many of the most significant themes in her artistic practice: sexuality, intimacy exposure and honesty, which is in the center of the theme "Man and his excesses" that runs through the collection of Estelle and Hervé Francès.
