2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Adding a culinary aspect of Frida's life was an incredible idea! Lupe Marin does an excellent job in sharing the secrets of popular Mexican food and how they influenced the art and persona of Frida Kahlo. This book definitely opens the senses to sensual recipies you could share with friends and significant others!
 Artfull - Evocative - Nostalgic September 27, 1998
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Artfull, evocative, and nostalgic are three adjectives that can give a sense of what the reader will find in this book. Renowned photographer Ignacio Urquiza, and Marie-Pierre Cole teamed again to bring us "Las Fiestas de Frida y Diego". In it, through the superb photography of Ignacio Urquiza, you will be carried to the spaces that were central in the life of the artists. Soon after you start going through the pages of the book, you forget about the carefully explained recipies, and shift your attention to the profuse anecdotes collected by Marie-Pierre, directly from Diego's daughter, Guadalupe Rivera, and the sublime photography of Urquiza.
