| Summary |
"In the 1970's, Frida Kahlo, who during her lifetime was already a champion of the new Mexico, was discovered by the women's movement, which served to make her œuvre popular world-wide and decisively influenced how it was received. However, the commercial marketing of Frida Kahlo's works has now become so intense that it tends to obscure a clear view of her œuvre. As a consequence, the present monograph returns to the roots, to 42 select masterpieces, reproduced life-size and in detail. They allow viewers to experience with their own eyes the painterly quality, the beauty and the immense wealth of details in her works, not to mention the abyss in which Frida Kahlo found herself".BOOKJACKET |
