Synopsis
The art and life of Frida Kahlo have become the focus of intense admiration in the last ten years, especially following the publication of Hayden Herrera's biography. Two films and a documentary have been made of her life. Kahlo was a woman of extreme magnetism and originality, an artist whose sensual vibrancy came straight from her own experiences; her childhood near Mexico City during the Mexican Revolution; her association through her husband Diego Rivera with the Communist party; her absorption in Mexican folklore and culture; and her dramatic love of spectacle.Book Details
