Frida: The Making of an Icon is not really an exhibition of Kahlo’s work. It is a cataloguing of her legacy.
This is a book that takes the complex needs of older artists seriously.
This is the challenge of the Kahlo legacy: the more ubiquitous her image becomes, the more its original and liberating meaning risks being flattened.
Art and the body are often linked in Kahlo’s life, which was short and traumatic.
The artist’s incredible skill once helped the painting to serve as a life-saving disguise.
