[edit] Information

Paula Rego: Telling Tales. Born in Portugal, Paula Rego is that great rarity a Britain artist with an international reputation. Her lasting reputation of is beyond doubt. Nicholas Serota, director of the Tate, describes her as a major figure that has "taken her own childhood experiences, memories, fantasies and fears, and given them universal significance". For Germaine Greer, whose 1995 portrait by Rego hangs in the National Portrait Gallery, her work is both feminist and subversive; "It is not often given to women to recognise themselves in painting, still less to see their private world, their dreams, the insides of their heads, projected on such a scale and so immodestly, with such depth and colour." Art critic Robert Hughes says simply that Rego is the "best painter of women's experience alive today". Paula Rego: telling tales follows Rego over a period of 12 months. During six interviews she talks with humour and candour to reveal the private stories that are woven into her pictures; she faces her demons, the same demons that form the compulsion to make work which keeps her monsters at bay. The result is an intimate and funny film that allows us to peek into the private world of Paula Rego.
