Omschrijving

This beautifully illustrated biography explores Frida Kahlo's life and legacy as a pioneering 20th-century Mexican artist and cultural icon, making it a wonderful gift for any lover of art.

Widely revered as a feminist icon and as a ground-breaking Mexican artist (she was the first Mexican artist to have a work purchased by the Louvre Museum in Paris), Frida Kahlo led a fascinating life, but one tinged with sadness - from suffering polio as a child to an accident at the age of 18 that left her with lifelong medical issues and led to a supposed suicide at the age of 47. In this concise biography, the author takes a look at the influences on Kahlo's work: her early childhood; the fascination with the mythology of earlier Mexican civilisations and Mexicanidad (a romanticised form of nationalism that gained popularity after the revolution); surrealism; and portraiture as well as exploring the works for which she became so renowned. Beautifully illustrated in full color, this is a great introduction to one of the 20th century's most popular female artists.
