A gripping introduction to the dramatic life and work of feminist icon Frida Kahlo, whose revolutionary artworks born out of personal affliction reveal her intimate passions and unremitting determination as an artist, one with a legacy that has endured into the twenty-first century.

Frida Kahlo (1907–54) is widely recognised as one of the defining artists of the twentieth century. Her uncompromising vision, self-fashioning and fearless portrayal of the self have all established her as a beloved global icon.

This introduction opens an intimate window into Kahlo’s world, exploring how Mexican traditions, revolutionary ideals and animist cosmovisions shaped her life and work. It traces her journey from Coyoacán, through her travels to the United States and Paris, and back to an adventurous life in Mexico, filled with artistic exchanges, fiestas and corridos, but also chronic illness and suffering. Delving into the many layers of an artist who defied categorisation, this book looks at Kahlo’s constant reimagining of the self as a disabled, mestiza woman, and invites the reader to engage with her legacy in new ways.

这是对女权主义偶像弗里达·卡罗充满吸引力的生平与作品介绍。她那些源于个人苦难的革命性艺术作品，展现了她作为艺术家的炽热激情和不屈决心，其遗产一直延续到21世纪。

弗里达·卡罗（1907–1954）被广泛认为是20世纪具有决定性意义的艺术家之一。她毫不妥协的视野、自我塑造以及对自我的大胆描绘，都使她成为深受喜爱的全球偶像。

本介绍为我们打开了一扇通往卡罗世界的私密之窗，探寻墨西哥传统、革命理想和万物有灵论的宇宙观如何塑造了她的生活与创作。书中追溯了她的人生旅程：从科约阿坎出发，到美国和巴黎旅行，再回到墨西哥过着充满冒险的生活——这段生活中有艺术交流、节日庆典和民谣传唱，也有长期的疾病与痛苦。通过深入剖析这位拒绝被归类的艺术家的诸多层面，本书展现了卡罗对自身作为残疾混血女性身份的不断重塑，并邀请读者以全新的方式去感受她的遗产。
