Regularly associated with Surrealism and Naïve Art, movements from which she sought to distance herself, Frida Kahlo is one of the most iconic artists of the 20th century. Severely injured in a bus accident at the age of 18, she transformed her pain into art. Self-taught from an early age in Mexico, she drew inspiration from the country’s popular traditions. Throughout her life, she constantly reinvented herself, turning resilience into both a weapon and a source of strength. Her vibrant compositions, enriched by a rich chromatic palette, make her creative universe truly unique.
Written by Annabelle Gugnon, an art critic, journalist, and psychoanalyst, this book highlights the work of a painting icon through a clear and accessible reading of her work.
