Overview
Venerada tanto por su espíritu salvaje, como por su arte, Frida Kahlo es un símbolo de creatividad arriesgada. Durante décadas sus pinturas han permanecido atemporales, cautivando admiradores de distintas generaciones alrededor del mundo. Sin embargo, su más grande obra de arte es quizá su propia vida. ¿Qué haría Frida? celebra el estilo característico de esta icónica mujer, la franqueza de sus ideales, su apasionada vida amorosa y su intrépido arte —incluso frente a las dificultades, el dolor y la angustia—. Sus páginas rinden homenaje a una mujer que amó profundamente y vivió con ambición, negándose a permanecer a la sombra de su esposo, el famoso muralista Diego Rivera.
Frida se enfrentó a diversos obstáculos, sin embargo, su tenacidad para abrazar y luchar por sus propias creencias, la llevó a convertirse en leyenda: una figura que bebía mucho, pintaba provocativamente, ejercía con libertad su sexualidad y con todo mundo dejaba correr los rumores de sus relaciones, desde León Trotsky, hasta Josephine Baker.
A través de las reflexiones sobre esta singular vida, Davis nos invita a invocar la audacia de Frida para guiarnos por nuestros propios caminos.

Revered as much for her fierce spirit as she is for her art, Frida Kahlo stands today as a feminist symbol of daring creativity. Her paintings have earned her admirers around the world, but perhaps her greatest work of art was her own life. What Would Frida Do? celebrates this icon’s signature style, outspoken politics, and boldness in love and art—even in the face of hardship and heartbreak. We see her tumultuous marriage with the famous muralist Diego Rivera and rumored flings with Leon Trotsky and Josephine Baker.
In this irresistible read, writer Arianna Davis conjures Frida’s brave spirit, encouraging women to create fearlessly and stand by their own truths.
