More about the book
Frida Kahlo, with over 80 large-scale full-color plates, illustrates the full range of this vibrant artist's work, from the extraordinary series of self-portraits which she painted over more than 20 years, to those more disturbing and cerebral works which were hailed by her contemporaries as Surrealist. Art historian Frank Milner traces the potent mixture of personal history, cultural inheritance, political commitment and sheer self-conscious myth-making that permeates Kahlo's work, and argues that any attempt to subsume her painting within a particular tradition is doomed to a unique artistic phenomenon.
