美しく装丁された本書は、美術史家のヘイデン・ヘレラがその驚くべきメキシコの画家フリーダ・カーロにより描かれた数々の絵画やスケッチをまとめ、カーロの人生が絵に与えた影響や作品の意味について解説した1冊である。80を超えるフルカラーの絵画作品のほか、モノクロ作品、線画などが収められている。本書には、「Self-Portrai as a Tehuana」「Without Hope」「The Dream」「The Little Deer」「Diego and I」「Henry Ford Hospital」「My Birth」「My Nurse and I」など、有名・無名を問わずさまざまな作品が含まれている。このほかにも、フリーダ・カーロの人生の紆余曲折を理解するのに役立つ、彼女自身と彼女の世界を写した記録写真が紹介されている。
In small, stunningly rendered self–portraits, Mexican artist Frida Kahlo painted herself cracked open, hemorrhaging during a miscarriage, anesthetized on a hospital gurney, and weeping beside her own extracted heart.
Her works are so incendiary in emotion and subject matter that one art critic suggested the walls of an exhibition be covered with asbestos.
In this beautiful book, art historian Hayden Herrera brings together numerous paintings and sketches by the amazing Mexican artist, documenting each with explanatory text that probes the influences in Kahlo‘s life and their meaning for her work. Included among the illustrations are more than eighty full–color paintings, as well as dozens of black–and–white pictures and line illustrations. Among the famous and little–known works included in Frida Kahlo: The Paintings are The Two Fridas, Self–Portrait as a Tehuana, Without Hope, The Dream, The Little Deer, Diego and I, Henry Ford Hospital, My Birth, and My Nurse and I. Here, too, are documentary photographs of Frida Kahlo and her world that help to illuminate the various stages of her life.
