This major monograph on the life and work of artist Paula Rego surveys a career that spans six decades, combining literary and artistic perspectives."Paula Rego is an outstanding artist. She deserves an outstanding book. And now she has one." Waldemar Januszczak, Art Critic, The Sunday TimesA prolific painter and printmaker, Paula Rego is an artist of astonishing power with a unique and unforgettable aesthetic. Capturing the extraordinary aspects of Regos work, author Deryn ReesJones places autobiographical narratives alongside stories suggested by Regos pictures. She explores their rich and textured layering of references to the old masters, fiction, fairytales, poems, the folk traditions of Regos native Portugal, politics, feminism, and more. The result is a highly original work that addresses urgent and topical questions on gender, subject and object, and self and other.Taking its cues from the artist, this fascinating study invites us to reflect on the complexities of storytelling. Rooted in close interpretation of the artworks, we see how Regos art intersects with the work of other women artists, such as Cindy Sherman and Louise Bourgeois, as well as writers, from Charlotte Bronte and Angela Carter to Franz Kafka and Martin McDonagh.A definitive volume on the artists oeuvre, Paula Rego continues to raise questions, elevating it beyond a retrospective to something both provocative and authoritative. 350 illustrations
