Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera

Abstract

This book considers one of the first women in the history of art who - with an unparalleled directness and brutal clarity - focused on subjects exclusively to do with women. Late 20th-century perceptions of Mexican art are now dominated by Kahlo, whose work has now gained enormous popularity. Her stormy relationship with the painter Diego Rivera is mirrored in many of her paintings, which also combine motifs of folk art with deeply personal self portraits.
