Among the women artists who have transcended art history, none had
a meteoric rise quite like Mexican painter Frida Kahlo
(1907–1954). Her unmistakable face, depicted in over fifty
extraordinary self-portraits, has been admired by generations;
along with hundreds of photographs taken by notable artists such as
Manuel and Lola Álvarez Bravo, Nickolas Muray, and Martin
Munkácsi, they made Frida Kahlo an iconic image of 20th century
art.After an accident in her early youth, Frida became a painter of
her own free will. Her marriage to Diego Rivera in 1929 placed her
at the forefront of an artistic scene not only in the cultural
Renaissance of Mexico, but also in the United States. Her work
garnered praise from the poet André Breton, who added the Mexican
painter to the ranks of international surrealism and exhibited her
work in Paris in 1939 to the admiration of Picasso, Kandinsky, and
Duchamp.We access the intimacy of Frida’s affections and passions
through a selection of drawings, pages from her personal diary, and
an extensive illustrated biography featuring photos of Frida,
Diego, and the Casa Azul, Frida’s home and the center of her
universe.This book allows readers to admire Frida Kahlo’s
paintings like never before, including unprecedented detail shots
and famous photographs. It presents pieces in private collections
and reproduces works that were previously lost or have not been
exhibited for more than 80 years.
