Paula Rego
23 November to 19 April 2020
Art is, above all, about
communicating and one of
our greatest living visual
storytellers is Dame Paula Rego.
The 84-year-old possesses
a vivid and often macabre
imagination, turning to folk tales
and storybooks whenever she
struggles with a painting.
Rego balances these fanciful
fictions by immersing herself in
current affairs and contemporary
issues. This major new
retrospective, touring from Milton
Keynes, focuses on this aspect
of hercareer,selectingworks
thattackleabortion,politics,
genderandmore.
It is a reminderto allartists
to beboldandspeakout.
