Published on the occasion of the exhibition held at the Museo de Arte de Ponce in Puerto Rico, this fascinating volume offers a revealing and introspective gaze into the creative universe of the celebrated Mexican painter Frida Kahlo. Agustín Arteaga, Juan Coronel Rivera, and Nadia Ugalde examine the work of the artist from the perspective of the influences she underwent and of her aesthetic preferences, proposing readings that truly decipher the codes originally configured by Frida. This journey through Frida’s worlds takes the reader from popular and pre-Hispanic art to the visual arts and photography of the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth century. The 122 reproductions complement the texts and show Frida Kahlo’s singular sensibility and style through situations, atmospheres, colors, forms, and textures.
