Kaum eine Künstlerin stieg so kometenhaft in der Kunstgeschichte auf wie die mexikanische Malerin Frida Kahlo (1907-1954). Ihr unverwechselbares Antlitz hielt sie in über fünfzig außergewöhnlichen Selbstporträts fest, die seit Generationen bewundert werden. Diese Werke und zahlreiche Aufnahmen namhafter Fotokünstler wie Manuel und Lola Álvarez Bravo, Nickolas Muray und Martin Munkácsi machten Frida Kahlo zu einer Ikone der Kunst des 20. Jahrhunderts. Nach einem Unfall in ihrer frühen Jugend entschied sich Frida, Malerin zu werden. Ihre Heirat mit Diego Rivera im Jahr 1929 katapultierte sie an die Spitze der Kunstszene, nicht nur in Mexiko, sondern auch in den Vereinigten Staaten und in Europa. Kein geringerer als André Breton lobte ihr Werk und nahm die Malerin in den internationalen Kreis der Surrealisten auf . 1939 stellte er ihre Arbeiten in Paris aus, wo Picasso, Kandinsky und Duchamp sie bewunderten. Dieser Band bietet Gelegenheit, Frida Kahlos Gemälden nahe wie nie zuvor zu kommen - in brillanten Reproduktionen und im Zusammenspiel mit berühmten Fotografien. Das Buch präsentiert Werke aus Privatsammlungen, die für die breite Öffentlichkeit schwer zugänglich sind, und zeigt Arbeiten, die bislang als verschollen galten oder seit mehr als 80 Jahren nicht mehr ausgestellt waren . Zeichnungen, Tagebuchseiten sowie eine umfangreich illustrierte Biografie mit Fotos von Frida, Diego und der Casa Azul - ihrem Zuhause - erlauben einen intimen Einblick in Frida Kahlos Leben und ihr künstlerisches Universum .
