Produktinformationen zu „Frida Kahlo. Retrospective, English Edition “
The life and work of Frida Kahlo were inextricably intertwined. This beautiful monograph celebrates the artist while exploring the lesser-known aspects of her story. Reproductions of Kahlo's paintings are accompanied by a series of illuminating essays that explore the artist's private writings and the intense public interest in her life, the role of physical and mental suffering in the creative process, and the coded and double meanings hidden in so much of Kahlo's work. In addition, a photographic essay compiled by her grandniece, Cristina Kahlo, features images from the family's private collection. As an icon of female strength and suffering, Frida Kahlo has become something of an art world myth. This scholarly yet profoundly moving illustrated tribute to her life and work offers a measured perspective that rises above the noise of celebrity to discover the true artist and the truth of her art.

Autoren-Porträt von Peter von Becker, Ingried Brugger, Salomon Grimberg, Cristina Kahlo, Arnoldo Kraus, Helga Prignitz-Poda, Francisco Reyes Palma, Florian Steininger, Jeanette Zwingenberger
Frida Kahlo, geboren am 6. Juli 1907 in Coyoacán/Mexico, gestorben ebendort am 13. Juli 1954. Ihr nur 143 meist kleinformatige Gemälde umfassendes Werk ist erst seit den siebziger Jahren, als die Frauenbewegung sie entdeckte, weltweit berühmt geworden; einige ihrer Bilder, wie "Die gebrochene Säule" oder "Der verwundete Hirsch", sind inzwischen Ikonen weiblicher Selbstdarstellung. Prägend für ihr Werk war ihr persönliches Schicksal. Als 18jährige erlitt sie einen Busunfall, dessen Folgen sie bis an ihr Lebensende ertragen musste und ihr ureigener Blick auf die Kunst, die sie mexikanische Folklore mit Surrealismus, barocke Maltechniken mit Autobiographischem verschmelzen ließ.
