"This beautiful book poetically offers a fresh look at one of art's iconic women, and though Kahlo is the protagonist of the project, Levine's journey includes us all." --Publishers Weekly
Finding Frida Kahlo (Princeton Architectural Press, 2009) presents, for the first time in print, an astonishing archive attributed of one of the twentieth century's most revered artists. Hidden from view for over half a century, this richly illustrated, intimate portrait overflows with fascinating details about Kahlo's romances, friendships, and business affairs during a three-decade period, beginning in the 1920s when she was a teenager and ending just before she died in 1954.
A visual exploration full of ardent desires, seething fury, and outrageous humor, Finding Frida Kahlo explores the universally human tendencies that the archive represents and asks the reader to consider: How are we reflected in what we leave behind?
