Talk: Celia Paul And William Feaver in conversation

Whilst studying at the Slade School of Art from 1976 to 1981, Celia Paul was taught by Lucian Freud, for whom she became a model, featuring in several paintings such as ‘Naked Girl with Egg’ (1981), ‘Girl in a Striped Nightshirt’ (1985) and ‘Painter and Model’ (1986-87). In 1984 Paul had a child by Freud, named Frank Paul, who is also an artist. To mark the exhibition Painters in Parallel, Celia Paul talks to Freud expert William Feaver about her life, work and relationship with the late great painter.
