"Frieda:A Biography of Frida Kahlo" by Hayden Herrera
By Salina Public Library

The Art Center Book Club is a collaboraton between the Salina Art Center and Salina Public Library focusing on Non-fiction titles related to art.  Copies of this book is available for checkout at the Salina Public Library.  Registration not required.

This engrossing biography of Mexican painter Frida Kahlo reveals a woman of extreme Magnetism and originality, an artist whose sensual vibrancy came straight from her own experiences: her childhood near Mexico City during the Mexican Revolution; a devestaring accident at age 18 that left her crippled and unable to bear children; her tempestuous marriage to muralist Diego Rivera and intermittent love affairs with men as diverse as Isamu Noguchi and Leon Trotsky; her association with the Communist Party and her dramatic love of spectacle.
