The female protagonists of the Portuguese-British artist Paula Rego either come from real life or derive from the world's great legends, fairy tales, and myths. As complicated heroines of our time they have endured illegal abortions or fight against the limitations of traditional gender roles instead of dragons.

"My favorite themes are power games and hierarchies". Rego's oeuvre is a tour de force of creativity. Endlessly versatile and inexhaustible, it is deeply rooted in pictorial worlds and stories from both past and present. This volume approaches the remarkable wealth of Rego's multi-faceted universe through a range of different perspectives and tells of the power of history and emotions, women's rights and invisible structures of domination.
