Frida Kahlo in Frida Kahlo: Letters 1922-1954 (Paperback)

Customer Review

If there is a material on which to lean to understand both the genesis and development of the work of Kahlo, it is these letters that the artist Frida wrote a life, his entourage.
Moving, too violent, or sublime, but in any case always illuminating the nature of such a personality, multiple correspondence show us the events that marked all his work, which is nothing other than his life, that his "reality" itself, she says. The trauma of the 1925 bus accident, his dislike of so-called "avant-garde", his friendship with "Ms. Breton" deep pain of separation, ephemeral pleasures of reunion, until his political facet ( we know the course marked by communism), the reader finds everything in this great and valuable book for a more accurate understanding of the painting of Kahlo ...
No need for all the biographies of the world to understand the artist Frida by Frida Frida says everything.
