Virar o Medo ao Contrário, Como a Paula Rego
'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.
Paula drew non-stop.
She hid from the dark and everything that frightened her.
Later, Paula exhibited all over the world, books were written and films made about her. Her art woke up dreams, mixed fantasy and reality, and tried to turn everything upside down.
