| book description |

The richly illustrated story of a brief yet pivotal encounter in Paris between Frida Kahlo and Mary Reynolds, two luminaries of the Surrealist movement Â In February 1939, while visiting Paris at the invitation of writer AndreÌ Breton, Mexican artist Frida Kahlo (1907â€“1954) became sick and convalesced at the home of American expatriate Mary Reynolds (1891â€“1950), an avant-garde bookbinder, collector of Surrealist artist books, and partner of Marcel Duchamp. This book traces the story of Kahlo and Reynoldsâ€™s connection and its influence on their work, even after the friendship had elapsed. Â Kahlo and Reynoldsâ€™s intense encounter unfolds in this volume through the artworks they each made, their shared exploration of Reynoldsâ€™s expansive Surrealist library, and letters from Kahlo to her lover, American photographer Nickolas Muray, in which she recounted her time in Paris. Included in this focused study are paintings and drawings by Kahlo, selections of books by Reynolds, photographs by Muray of Kahlo, depictions of Reynolds by artists in Paris, and a selection of letters between Kahlo and Reynolds describing their defining experience together. Â Distributed for the Art Institute of Chicago Â Exhibition Schedule: Â Art Institute of Chicago (March 29â€“July 13, 2025) Â
