Reviews

"Kahlo's family home is now a museum of her work and life. If you can't make the journey, this will give you some insights into the woman as well as the artist.”— The Independent, on the English-language edition


"The many people who are already fascinated with Kahlo will glean further understanding of her art and experience from this fresh study, while general readers will gain a deeper appreciation of the artist." —Marcia G. Welsh, Dartmouth Coll. Lib., Hanover, NH, Library Journal, on the English-language edition



"This autumn, a new book published by Frances Lincoln celebrates the profound pleasure Kahlo took in arranging and organising her various homes throughout the course of her 47 years; Frida Kahlo at Home is a voluptuous celebration of the life and work of the artist, viewed through the prism of her various residences. In its pages, decorative artworks become a highly-curated archive, and the development and use of different rooms a biographical progression." —Maisie Skidmore, AnOther Magazine, on the English-language edition


"This is a new spin on Frida Kahlo - a look at the influence of Mexican culture and landscape, her beautiful homes and places she travelled to. It's a visual feast with Frida's paintings plus archival photographs of her life, and Mexico at the time. "Frida made the Blue House her sanctuary, transforming her childhood home into a work of art," writes Barbezat. In this book we get a sense of the struggles but also the joys of Frida's life, plus a glorious insight into her work." —The Australian Women's Weekly, on the English-language edition
