"Frida By Ishiuchi" is a photo collection by Ishiuchi Miyako, one of Japan's leading female photographers in modern times. Her early trilogy, "Yokosuka Story," "Apartment," and "Nights of the City," released around the 1980s, are known as masterpieces that have made their mark in the history of Japanese photography. Since the 1990s, she has been enthusiastically working on close-ups of bodies that mark time and memory, such as "1, 9, 4, 7," "1906 to the Skin," "Mothers," "Scars," and "Hiroshima." This book is part of that same trend, and is a collection of photographs of the belongings of the great Mexican female painter Frida Kahlo. Frida's belongings have appeared 50 years after her death. A project to photograph her belongings was started by a curator, and Ishiuchi Miyako was commissioned to do so. This document "records" the "proof" and "memories" of Frida, who lived as an independent female artist despite her physical disabilities, political instability, and the waves of modernization. For the first time, Ishiuchi has revealed the full picture of "Frida's daily life," including ethnic costumes, accessories, cosmetics, medicines, and corsets. English version.
