Product Description

Product Description
This monograph deals exclusively with Paula Rego's graphic work. It features over 200 etchings, aquatints and lithographs from 1954 and her student days to the Jane Eyre series in 2002, and several prints that were never editioned but only proofed. For many painters, etching and lithography are merely an adjunct to their art, and their graphic images are simply copies of their paintings in another medium. Rego is unique among highly acclaimed artists in that her graphic works are mostly original in theme as well as execution, and she makes use of this different medium to project the disturbing and subversive power seen in her paintings. The text, written by Rego's friend and long-time supporter, T.G. Rosenthal, provides the background to each series and analyses each work. The author also quotes extensively from conversations with the artist, underlining Rego's subversive humour and her strongly feminist outlook. A fully illustrated catalogue raisonne, a description of Rego's techniques by Paul Coldwell, a comprehensive list of exhibitions and a bibliography here provide a survey of a major aspect of Rego's work.

5.0 out of 5 stars gorgeous, 16 Aug 2007
By svr (London, UK) - See all my reviews
This is a brilliant collection of Rego's prints, beautifully reproduced and accompanied by some insightful writing. As someone who's always greatly admired (the little I knew of) her work but who wasn't familiar with any of her graphic stuff, I was thrilled with this book - page after page reveals her typical take on narrative, her usual mix of the innocent and the sinister, things playful and everyday and fantastical and foreboding. The mainly monochrome prints (a good few are hand-coloured) really show off Rego's great skill as a draughtswoman as well as her command of tone when it comes to creating an atmosphere.
I thought buying this online (ie, unseen) might be a bit of a gamble, but it has more than paid off, and I would hazard a guess that if you enjoy the quality of Rego's handiwork as much as the stories underlying it, this will delight and entertain you too.
