After a career spanning nearly half a century, Paula Rego is acknowledged to be one of the leading figurative artists at work today. Drawing on literature, fairytales, myths, religious stories and the cartoons of Walt Disney, among other sources, she creates strongly narrative works imbued with a sense of subversive mystery.
Writer and curator Fiona Bradley provides a key to understanding Rego's imagery through her searching account of the artist's life and working practices. New interviews with Rego shed light on her own assessment of her work.
These Tate books on artists are solid reads if at times a little dull both in the typography of the books (the bold initials on the front of each artist in the series is a little tiresome) and the designs but it's the quality of the prints that really stand out and why, in my opinion, they are so popular.
