Frida Kahlo: Face to Face ReviewJudy Chicago is not only one of our more important artists today, she is also in the forefront of assuring that women artists from the past (think back to Artemisia Gentileschi -1593 to 1653 forward) as well as those of the present, both well known and emerging, are equally recognized with male artists. This very colorful and beautifully designed book is a testament to that mindset. Chicago with the able assistance of art historian Frances Borzello has selected a large number of works by the ever fascinating artist Frida Kahlo and has put together a survey of her early influences and her phenomenal output in tandem with the works that Chicago feels presents a case for exploring Kahlo's inspiration.
While most of us are very familiar with the vast number of self portraits Kahlo painted, portraits that tell us as much about the art milieu of her time as any essay, there are many works presented here that are less well known and that deserve the attention the dialogue between Chicago and Borzello offer. The reproductions of both Kahlo's works as well as reproductions of frescoes, retablos, and other images from the past that can be noted as seeds in many of Kahlo's paintings are first class. From the rich cover of the book, emphasizing red (a favorite hue for Kahlo's dress and art), through to the details selected from Kahlo's works magnified for closer examination, this is a book of quality. And as if all of this shared imagery and information weren't enough this book is also a fine format for the gender issues both authors address. Highly recommended.
