Paula Rego and Salette Tavares

Paula Rego (1935-2022) and Salette Tavares (1922-1994) met around 1964 and were, in addition to being friends in private life, also companions in the art world.

Remembering their friendship and artistic complicity in this year 2022 adds another fact shared by both, which, however, overshadows this small celebration: the 100th anniversary of Salette Tavares' birth coincides with the year of Paula Rego's death.

This exhibition commemorates their relationship and reveals the different but crossed paths they traced in the Portuguese context in the 1970s and especially after the Revolution of April 25, 1974.
