Paula Rego

the complete graphic work

Edición de la obra Paula Rego

"Many of the greatest artists since Durer and Rembrandt have used the print medium to explore some of their most important ideas. Paula Rego is in this tradition, giving full rein to her imagination in both etching and lithography, and using the media with exuberance to create work that is as disturbing, erotic and powerful as her paintings." "This book, with reproductions in tritone and colour, is the first monograph to deal exclusively with Rego's graphic work. It discusses and illustrates all her prints, including unpublished work - over 200 etchings and lithographs spanning half a century from 1954 to 2003." "T.G. Rosenthal, a long-time supporter of Rego's work, discusses the background to each series, and comments on each print. He also quotes extensively from his and others' conversations with the artist, underlining Rego's subversive humour and her strongly feminist outlook. A fully illustrated catalogue raisonne by Hannah Begbie, a description of Rego's etching techniques by the artist and printmaker Paul Coldwell, a list of exhibitions, a chronology and a bibliography make this a unique source of information on a major aspect of this leading artist's work."--Jacket.
