More than 70 years after her death, the Mexican artist Frida Kahlo's image is everywhere: on tote bags, t-shirts, posters. Yet behind the commercialisation lies a deeper question: why does Frida Kahlo continue to move millions around the world? A new exhibition at Tate Modern, Frida: The Making of an Icon, attempts to come up with an answer. Rather than a traditional retrospective of her work, It explores how a young female artist from Mexico City became a global phenomenon.
