Summary
A rich overview of the fascinating life and career of internationally renowned Mexican artist Frida Kahlo (1907-1954), this volume features the artist's complex and diverse paintings, a series of thoughtful essays about her and her oeuvre, and a detailed illustrated chronology. As a woman artist who confronted many taboo subjects--and herself--head-on, Kahlo produced groundbreaking work that shifted the terrain of the art world. In these pages, new high-resolution photographs present the most accurate reproductions ever of her visionary artworks, including many ravishing details. With this deeply researched, stunningly designed volume in hand, readers can do just that--, Book jacket
