Kahlo - Basic Art Series, Book

Pain and passion.
The original and intimate art of Mexico's most famous painter.
Frida Kahlo's (1907-1954) striking images were, in many ways, expressions of trauma. Through a near-fatal car accident at the age of 18, health problems, a turbulent marriage, miscarriages and childlessness, she transformed her afflictions into revolutionary art. In literal or metaphorical self-portraits, Kahlo looks at the viewer with an audacious gaze, rejecting her fate as a passive victim and interweaving expressions of her experience into a surreal-real hybrid language of life: hair, roots, veins, vines, tentacles and fallopian tubes.

Muitas de suas obras também exploram os ideais políticas comunistas que Kahlo compartilhava com o seu marido Diego Rivera. A artista descreveu as suas pinturas como “a coisa mais sincera e real que eu poderia fazer para expressar o que sentia dentro e fora de mim.” Este livro apresenta uma extraordinária seleção de obras de Kahlo que exploram a sua determinação inflexível como artista, a sua importância como pintora, ícone feminista e pioneira da cultura latino-americana.
