Synopsis "Frida / Frida: A Biography of Frida Kahlo (in Spanish)"

La mejor biografía que se ha escrito sobre Frida Kahlo, la pintora mexicana por excelencia. Edición revisada con prólogo de Valeria Luiselli. Frida fue una figura mítica creada por sí misma, el centro exótico de una esfera que incluía a amigos como León Trotski y Nelson Rockefeller, Isamu Noguchi y André Breton, Dolores del Río y Paulette Goddard. Fue esposa del gran muralista Diego Rivera y artista brillante por derecho propio. Esta edición ampliamente revisada de la biografía de la pintora mexicana por excelencia nos revela a una mujer con un magnetismo y una originalidad legendarios, cuya vida fue tan dramática y obsesiva como las imágenes que pintaba. La sensualidad de sus cuadros, el ambiente extraño y denso que los impregna, surgieron directamente de sus propias experiencias: su infancia durante la Revolución, el devastador accidente sufrido a los dieciocho años, su vínculo con el Partido Comunista a través de Diego Rivera, su pasión por el folclore y la cultura de México... Frida realizó una fascinante obra autobiográfica plasmada en la pintura: una irresistible serie de autorretratos que representaban el desarrollo de su urgente necesidad de conocerse a sí misma, creados entre 1926 y 1954, fecha en que murió. Quienes la conocieron relatan la historia de su vida como una novela llena de encanto y joie de vivre, hasta el trágico final. Pese a que la verdad es más desoladora, la historia de Frida Kahlo sigue siendo tan extraordinaria como la leyenda que creó. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Revised Edition. Prologue by Valeria Luiselli. Born near Mexico City, she grew up during the turbulent days of the Mexican Revolution and, at eighteen, was the victim of an accident that left her crippled and unable to bear children. To salvage what she could from her unhappy situation, Kahlo had to learn to keep still - so she began to paint. Kahlo's unique talent was to make her one of the century's most enduring artists. But her remarkable paintings were only one element of a rich and dramatic life. Frida is also the story of her tempestuous marriage to the muralist Diego Rivera, her love affairs with numerous, diverse men such as Isamu Noguchi and Leon Trotsky, her involvement with the Communist Party, her absorption in Mexican folklore and culture, and of the inspiration behind her unforgettable art.
