A mão e os gestos da Ana Hatherly

'Heroínas das Artes' Collection – Catarina Sobral

‘Heroínas das Artes’ [Heroines of the Arts] is a collection of books for all those who believe that heroines exist. Based on the modern and contemporary art collection of CAM – Centro de Arte Moderna Gulbenkian, we will tell stories about brave, adventurous, daring and fearless women who, through art, transform our world. 

Ana grew up in a haunted house. She went to mysterious places and liked horror films. She didn’t like routines, she preferred surprises and trying new things. Perhaps that’s why she made so many different gestures: writing books, drawing poetry, making performances and films, learning and teaching. All these gestures still exist!

Catarina Sobral

Catarina Sobral (Coimbra, 1985) studied Design, did a Masters in Illustration and works as an illustrator and author of content for children. This is her 20th book. She has published illustrated books in more than fifteen languages. She has written and directed two animated films, created a stage show and produced a radio programme for children. Between books and films, she has won dozens of awards. And she’s a feminist.
