Kveta Pacovska - Cinderella

Kveta Pacovska was born in 1928 in Prague, where she still lives and works. She began her career as an illustrator in the fifties,
specialising in object books, three-dimensional tactile works and illustrations of children’s stories.

A sense of playfulness is an essential characteristic of her work. Her works include bizarre collages, mirrors and superimposition's of different kinds of paper, cut-outs capable of generating ever new characters and stories, as in the miniature theatre of Midnight Play.

Her illustrations are immediately recognisable for the use of bold, saturated colours without nuances, a dense style and almost childlike use of lines. Her passion for geometric and abstract shapes is often based on the use of linguistic signs, as in Alphabet in which letters and numbers merge with her creatures. One of her latest works is Unfold/Enfold, an elegant fold-out object book that features unexpected pop-up pages and explosions of colour.

This classic tale is of a beautiful and sweet girl whose cruel stepmother and stepsisters mistreat her.

This book offers a truly novel approach to the classic story, with vibrant imagery used throughout, by an award-winning internationally renowned artist.
