Celebrated British painter Paula Rego (born 1935) uses symbolically charged imagery in her representational paintings and prints to challenge social codes perpetuated by patriarchy. 'Obedience and Defiance' accompanies a major travelling exhibition of Rego's career since the 1960s and includes previously unseen works and curatorial texts.
