Frida, a Biography of Frida KahloHarper & Row, 1983 - 507 עמודים This powerful and engrossing biography of Mexican painter Frida Kahlo reveals a woman of legendary magnetism and originality, whose life was as dramatic and haunting as the images she painted. Her sensual vibrancy came straight from her own experiences: her childhood in a Mexico City suburb during the Mexican Revolution; a devastating accident when she was eighteen that left her unable to bear children and caused her a lifetime of pain; her association through Rivera with the Communist party; her absorption in Mexican folklore and culture. Frida Kahlo's usual subject was herself, and her most intriguing work is an autobiography in paint: a series of compelling self-portraits that shows her urgent and evolving pursuit of self-awareness from 1926, when she began painting, to 1954, when she died at the age of forty-seven. Frida Kahlo's story remains every bit as extraordinary as the legend she created. -- From publisher's description. |
