Joy Gerrard & Paula Rego @ Cristea Roberts Gallery
27 January 2023 - 4 March 2023
Image as Protest, brings together two powerful bodies of work by Joy Gerrard and Dame Paula Rego RA (1935 – 2022), centred on women’s rights, and highlighting different ways in which protest can be manifested.
Several new drawings by Joy Gerrard of protest crowds, are shown alongside Paula Rego’s seminal abortion series. Whereas Gerrard’s drawings depict the act of open, collective, political action, Rego’s etchings offer a direct and personal view of the woman’s or girl’s experience.
