Frida Kahlo by Hettie Judah, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

Fridamania has made Frida Kahlo's image ubiquitous: she has been reborn as a Halloween costume, Barbie doll, children's book character, textile print, phone cover, and the inspiration for everything from cocktails to fashion shoots. But it is more difficult to get a clear vision of this bold and brilliant, foul-mouthed, heavy-drinking, hard-smoking, husband-stealing, occasionally bisexual, often bed-bound, wheelchair-using, needy, forthright, and passionate woman. Hettie Judah sets outto correct that with this superb biography of one of the most charismatic artists of the last hundred years. | Frida Kahlo by Hettie Judah, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
