… So let’s get it out of the way: a room dedicated to the work of Paula Rego in the Giardini (one of several take-breath-and-pause-for-a-moment mini surveys of women artists’ work, others of which are devoted, also profitably, to the subversive sloganeering of Barbara Kruger, fabric works by Rosemarie Trockel and a series of fantastical paintings by Cecilia Vicuña) was the best thing. And when it comes to thoughts they’re still developing (a good sign).
