一项关于弗里达·卡罗在现代艺术中地位的全新重磅评述：从其自我塑造的形象，到她为当代艺术家带来的持久影响。

很少有艺术家能像墨西哥画家弗里达·卡罗（1907–1954）那样深刻地塑造流行文化。几十年来，她那些引人注目的自画像和极具个人色彩的象征主义一直令观众着迷。同样令人铭记的还有她与同为艺术家的迭戈·里维拉之间跌宕起伏的婚姻，以及她充满激情的政治行动主义。卡罗的遗产已超越其艺术作品本身。直至今日，当代艺术家们仍从卡罗的生活与作品中汲取创作灵感。《弗里达：偶像的塑造》一书将卡罗的画作与来自世界各地、从中世纪到当下的其他艺术家的作品并列展示，探究了卡罗深远而持久的影响力。

《弗里达：偶像的塑造》汇集了顶尖研究员、学者与策展人的文章，是首个重要研究——特别是自20世纪70年代以来——卡罗如何成为全球偶像及重要艺术影响力的著作。全书分为七个章节，探讨了从卡罗作为跨性别知识分子的角色，到她的政治行动主义等主题，并收录了与当代艺术家玛格丽·拉拉和莫妮卡·迈尔的对话。这部重要著作赞颂并沟通了她偶像地位与文化、政治、商业及艺术遗产之间的复杂性。

A sweeping new assessment of Frida Kahlo’s place in modern art, from her self-made image to her lasting influence for contemporary artists

Few artists have shaped popular culture as profoundly as Mexican painter Frida Kahlo (1907–1954), whose striking self-portraits and deeply personal symbolism have captivated audiences for decades. Remembered, too, for her tumultuous marriage to fellow artist Diego Rivera and her passionate political activism, Kahlo’s legacy transcends her artistic oeuvre. To this day, contemporary artists draw on Kahlo’s life and work for creative inspiration. Showcasing Kahlo’s paintings alongside the work of other artists from around the world and from midcentury to today, Frida: The Making of an Icon investigates the profound and lasting nature of Kahlo’s impact.

With essays by leading researchers, scholars, and curators, Frida: The Making of an Icon is the first major examination of how Kahlo became a global icon and an important artistic influence, especially beginning in the 1970s. In seven sections, addressing themes from Kahlo’s role as a gender-fluid intellectual to her political activism, and including conversations with contemporary artists Magali Lara and Mónica Mayer, this important book celebrates and bridges the complexities of her iconic status and cultural, political, commercial, and artistic legacy.
