Giveaway: Frida Kahlo’s Entire Oeuvre of Paintings in One Book

Feb. 16, 2022

It might seem unbelievable that an artist as famous as Frida Kahlo could have the entirety of the her painted works documented in one book, but that is exactly what Taschen has done with their latest tome, ‘Frida Kahlo. The Complete Paintings.’ This XXL monograph of the Mexican artist’s oeuvre combines all of Kahlo’s 152 paintings with rarely seen photographs, diary pages, letters and an illustrated biography. As one of the most well-known women artists in history, Kahlo was a key figure in Mexican revolutionary modern art, whose championing of feminism, sexuality and gender transcended many of her era.
