Tracey Emin will bring three monumental sculptures to the Trocadéro for Art Basel Paris 2026

This October, Tracey Emin will install three monumental sculptures on the Parvis des Droits de l’Homme at Trocadéro Square, facing the Eiffel Tower, as part of the Art Basel Paris Public Program. Free to visit from October 14th to November 1st, 2026, the presentation marks the first Public Program activation at the site.

Organised by Art Basel in collaboration with the Cité de l’architecture et du patrimoine and presented by White Cube, the project places Emin’s work against the monumental architecture of the Trocadéro, bringing her sculptures into one of Paris’s most recognisable public spaces.

The presentation forms part of Art Basel’s wider off-site programme, which extends across museums, galleries, streets, squares and gardens throughout Paris. During the city’s autumn art season, major works appear beyond the traditional fair setting, creating encounters across the urban landscape.

With the Eiffel Tower as its backdrop, Emin’s sculptures add a striking new presence to this expanding constellation of contemporary art across Paris. Miu Miu serves as the Official Partner of the Art Basel Paris Public Program.
