Tracey Emin, Alison Brackenbury, Book Covers

Tracey Emin discusses the creative burst she has experienced during lockdown, resulting in a series of new paintings created for an online exhibition called I Thrive on Solitude, the first time White Cube gallery has mounted an online exhibition.

Alison Brackenbury is Front Row's new Lockdown Poet in Residence. She's written a series of poems inspired by the museums throughout the country which have been shut for months. From Taunton to Edinburgh, Alison opens up these museums in her imagination, beginning tonight with a strange meeting in the Handel and Hendrix Museum.

As shops begin to reopen today, bookshops have introduced ‘book quarantine’ bins where books that have been picked up are placed to avoid cross-contamination. So are we now more likely to judge a book by its cover? Designer Jamie Keenan on the secrets behind a good book cover.
