Paula Rego (b. 1935) is acknowledged to be one of the leading figurative artists at work today. Influenced by Surrealism, folklore, dreams, and Disney animation, she creates strongly narrative works imbued with a sense of subversive mystery.
Fiona Bradley provides a thorough and searching account of Rego's life and work, drawing on new interviews with the artist that shed light on Rego's own assessment of her art. Six key works, demonstrating the development of her working methods, are discussed in depth.

Fiona Bradley is Exhibition Organiser at the Hayward Gallery, London, and Curator of Rego's 1997 retrospective at Tate Liverpool and the Centro Cultureel de Belem, Lisbon.
"This is an excellently produced book, more strengthened than stifled by the close presence of its subject."-Times Literary Supplement
