Many people know Frida Kahlo was a Mexican artist and a feminist icon.
They may not know that 55 of her 143 artworks are self-portraits, that her love letters sold for $137,000, or that she arrived for her first solo exhibition in an ambulance.
Chapters include:
- Life
- World
- Work
- Legacy
Biographic: Kahlo casts a modern eye over her life and work, with an array of irresistible facts and figures converted into infographics to reveal the artist behind the pictures.
"The Biographic Series is an exciting new collection of biographies about some of the world's greatest thinkers, writers, artists and cultural innovators. Whilst each book could be read cover to cover, readers are more likely to randomly select pages, stopping and pausing to find out more about the subject . . . The infographics are visually appealing and entertaining, perhaps reinvigorating an interest in the subject . . .The legacy of artists, such as Monet and Van Gogh are particularly well documented in their Biographic." --Armadillo magazine
