This definitive appreciation of Kahlo's career features gorgeous
full-page reproductions and insightful commentary to illuminate
connections between the artist's life and work. Few painters have
been as celebrated and adopted into popular culture as Frida
Kahlo-often to the detriment of her amazing achievements as a
painter. In this striking volume, one of the world's foremost
scholars on Kahlo's art looks past the hype to focus on the
artist's technique and motifs. Reproductions of Kahlo's paintings,
along with selected details, are accompanied by illuminating
observations about the role of physical and mental suffering in the
creative process, Kahlo's mastery and reinvention of European
traditions, and the wealth of coded and metaphorical elements
hidden in so much of her work. A rich and rewarding exploration of
an artist all too easily reduced to a single narrative, this
nuanced study is also an exquisitely produced celebration of
Kahlo's genius.
