As complicated heroines of our time, they have endured illegal abortions or fought against the limitations of traditional gender roles instead of dragons. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Contributors include Catarina Alfaro, Christa Binswanger, Cornelia Brink, Dulce Maria Cardoso, Elena Crippa, Ann Cvetkovich, Annie Ernaux, Em?lia Ferreira, Dominique Grisard, Marion Keller, Vera Marstaller, Marianne Meister-Notter, Victoria Miro, Leonor de Oliveira, Judith Rauser, Eva Reifert, Noemi Scherrer, Franziska Schutzbach, Jasper Warzecha, Anne Weber, Nick Willing, Andrea Zimmermann. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e With a contribution by Anne Weber and an excerpt of Annie Ernaux's \u003ci\u003eThe Happening\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEva Reifert\u003c\/b\u003e has been curator of nineteenth-century and modern art at Kunstmuseum Basel since 2016.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 232\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.85 x 11.36 x 9.49 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 20, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51754853728544,"sku":"9783777443126","price":52.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/28c015f572921531f1b7eaf9312594a1.webp?v=1780045048","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/paula-rego-power-games-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
