FRIDA KAHLO (TATE ARTISTS SERIES) (HB)

Frida Kahlo (1907-54) is widely recognised as one of the defining artists of the twentieth century. This introduction to her life and work traces her journey from Coyoacan, through her travels to the United States and Paris, and back to an adventurous life in Mexico, filled with artistic exchanges, fiestas and corridos, but also chronic illness and suffering. Delving into the many layers of an artist who defied categorisation, the book looks at Kahlo's constant reimagining of the self and invites the reader to engage with her legacy in new ways.
