Description

Radical and uncompromising, Paula Rego is an artist of extraordinary imaginative power. Over the course of sixty years, Rego has redefined figurative art, and revolutionised the representation of women and their experience. This essential book captures the full and striking breadth of Rego’s work, from early collage, to large-scale pastels of complex scenes staged in her studio. It includes both the iconic and the rarely seen, alongside insights into the deeply personal nature and socio-political roots of her uniquely subversive art.
