Frida by Ishiuchi is the first photographic documentation ever published of Mexican artist Frida Kahlo's personal attire and belongings, as portrayed by Japanese artist Miyako Ishiuchi. The victim of a nearly fatal bus accident as a young woman, Kahlo used fashion to channel her resulting physical difficulties into courageous statements of heritage, strength and beauty.

Following Ishiuchi's acclaimed series Mothers and Hiroshima , this collection provides a special look at a very intimate dimension of Frida Kahlo's universe.
