21. "The Trouble With Frida Kahlo" By Stephanie Mencimer Never has a woman with a mustache been so reveredor so marketedas frida kahlo. Like a female Che Guevara, she has become a cottage industry. http://www.washingtonmonthly.com/features/2001/0206.mencimer.html

Respond to this Article June 2002 The Trouble With Frida Kahlo Uncomfortable truths about this season's hottest female artist. By Stephanie Mencimer Never has a woman with a mustache been so reveredor so marketedas Frida Kahlo. Like a female Che Guevara, she has become a cottage industry. In the past year, Volvo has used her self-portraits to sell cars to Hispanics, the U.S. Postal Service put her on a stamp, and Time magazine put her on its cover. There have been Frida look-alike contests, Frida operas, plays, documentaries, novels, a cookbook, and now, an English-language movie. Mexican beauty Salma Hayek recently debuted as Frida at the Cannes film festival (reportedly playing the role mustachioed, despite protests from Hollywood). Hayek, who wrestled the role away from Madonna and Jennifer Lopez, will join a star-studded cast that includes Latin Lothario Antonio Banderas. The Kahlo cult has been well documented since it first emerged in the early 1990s. Back then, the artist was making headlines because her paintings were breaking records, fetching up to $1 million at auction, thanks in no small part to Madonna, an avid collector who claims to "identify with her pain and her sadness." Today, those paintings have wildly surpassed that mark, breaking $10 milliona price that puts Kahlo in a league with Picasso, Pollock, and Warhol. What looked like a fad a decade ago has only grown stronger as Kahlo has been embraced as a poster child for every possible politically correct cause. By 1998, Cosmopolitan magazine was urging women to read Kahlo's biography as one of 10 ways to "celebrate National Women's Month." In a new book of essays celebrating resistance to the evils of global capitalism, John Berger writes an homage to Kahlo saying, "That she became a world legend is in part due to the fact that . . . under the new world order, the sharing of pain is one of the essential preconditions for a refinding of dignity and hope."

THE FRIDA KAHLO MUSEUM A Narrative by Gale Randall Her Bio Her E-mail For an offbeat travel experience in the Mexico City area, consider a visit to the Museo Frida Kahlo in Coyoacan. Hidden behind high cobalt blue walls at the corner of Londres and Allende in this charming southwestern suburb, the museo is where the surrealist artist Frida Kahlo was born, grew up and later lived with her muralist husband Diego Rivera, from 1941 until her death at age 47 in 1954. Fascinating not only for the collections and personal effects of the two great artists it contains, the museum also affords a window on the lifestyles of affluent Mexican bohemians during the first half of this century. Photo Strip Link The colonial-style house, a.k.a. the Casa Azul, forms a U-shape around a verdant central courtyard. This cheerful space populated by pre-Columbian idols and luxuriant tropical plantings, is where Frida romped as a child and later as an adult worked on her paintings and held art classes for her "Los Fridos" students. Off the courtyard, the first room one enters is the formal living room, a place where the Riveras entertained their international and eclectic set of friends, including Sergei Eisenstein, Nelson Rockefeller, George Gershwin, the Russian emigre Leon Trotsky, caricaturist Miguel Covarrubias and actresses Dolores del Rio and Maria Felix. Now it's a gallery where some of Kahlo's paintings can be seen, including paintings of her family and her last work, Viva la Vida, a vibrant still life of watermelons.

PUT YOUR AD HERE Women in Art Frida Kahlo Kahlo nearly lost her life at age fifteen in a streetcar accident that crushed her pelvis and spine. During the next twenty-nine years she under went thirty-five operations and lived in constant pain. This physical reality became the theme for much of her art. Kahlo's portraits are unnerving because of there references to physical and psychic pain. She comboned elements from Mexican folf art and traditional Christian symbolism to make her own personal style. She developed a crush on Diego Rivera and then swore she would marry him. She eventually did so, twice, and their stormy relationship became as famous as their art. The Mexican government has turned her birthplace into the Frida Kahlo Museum.

Olga's Gallery Frida Kahlo Biography Page One Frida Kahlo at Artprice To look at auction records, find Kahlo's works in upcoming auctions, check price levels and indexes for his works, read his biography and view his signature, access the Artprice database. Frida Kahlo was born on July 6, 1907, the third of four daughters of Wilhelm Kahlo, a German Jew of Hungarian descent, and Matilde Calderon de Kahlo, a mestizo Mexican. The family lived in a house that the parents had built themselves in 1904, in Coyoacan, a suburb of Mexico City. Frida’s maternal grandfather had been a photographer and had taught her father the craft. Wilhelm, who changed his name to Guillermo when he became a Mexican citizen, set himself up in business and rose to relative prosperity, receiving commissions from the Mexican government. However, the Mexican Revolution, which started in 1910 and would continue for several decades, brought an end to this work, and as a result, Kahlo’s childhood was spent in relative poverty, forcing her to start working at an early age.

Portraits of Frida Kahlo An Art Exhibition Designed to Present A Modern Look at a Modern Icon "Tribute to Frida" By Diane Kahlo An art exhibition sponsored by the Fraser Gallery 1054 31st Street, N.W., Georgetown, Washington, D.C. 20007 Tel/Fax: (202) 298-6450 With a great opening on June 20, 1997, the Fraser Gallery of Georgetown hosted an exhibition of modern portraits of Mexican artist Frida Kahlo de Rivera . The portraits have been selected from invited artists as well as from nearly 200 entries from eligible U.S., Mexican, Canadian and U.K. artists and Kahlophiles in general. A total of 36 artists have been selected by the juror Florencio Lennox Campello , who describes himself as a "Kahlophile since age 17." He is not only an award winning artist on his own right, but also an acclaimed regional art critic whose art reviews appear in over a dozen art magazines and local Greater Washington capital area newspapers. His first exposure to Kahlo's work was during a vacation visit to Mexico City in 1975 and the love affair with Kahlo's work culminates with this exhibition. Included among the invited artists is the work of American artist Diane Kahlo, from Lexington, Kentucky. Diane Kahlo's grandfather was Frida Kahlo's uncle and in a remarkable coincidence, she was told about this competition and has created a special painting to celebrate the homage to her relative. About the Exhibition The works exhibited at the Fraser Gallery are still available to curators who may wish to exhibit these pieces or interested buyers. Direct all inquiries to the Fraser Gallery. Although several pieces have been sold, and all other pieces are for sale, all artists and purchasers have agreed to allow their works to continue to be exhibited if the opportunity arises. Sales inquiries should be directed to the Fraser Gallery.

It presents over 40 of the artist's most important self-portraits, still lifes, and portraits from the beginning of her career in 1926 until her death in 1954. Rendered in vivid colors and realistic detail, Kahlo's jewel-like paintings are filled with complex symbolism, often relating to specific incidents in her life. In her iconic self-portraits the artist continually reinvented herself. Paintings like The Two Kahlos (1939) demonstrate her penchant for self-examination, and works like Henry Ford Hospital (1932) and The Broken Column (1944) express her struggles with illness throughout her life.

T-Z Subjects: A-B C-E F-L M-Z Kahlo, Frida (1907-1954) Bisexual Mexican artist Frida Kahlo has become an international icon for the power and intensity of her art, and the extraordinary suffering that she experienced in life. Born in Mexico on July 6, 1907 to a German photographer and his Mexican second wife, Kahlo became a central figure in revolutionary Mexican politics and twentieth-century art. When childhood polio damaged one leg, the six year-old's reaction was to become an athlete, an early indication of her courage and independence. Sponsor Message. In 1925, at the age of eighteen, Kahlo suffered appalling injuries in a streetcar accident, when she was impaled by an iron handrail smashing through her pelvis. Multiple fractures to her spine, foot, and pelvic bones meant that the rest of her life was dominated by a struggle against severe pain and disability; she underwent thirty-two operations in thirty years. She died at the age of 47 on July 13, 1954, possibly a suicide. Following her accident Kahlo started painting, becoming an important surrealist. Her paintings, mostly self-portraits, employ the iconography of ancient Mesoamerican cultures to depict both her physical suffering and her passion for Mexican politics and for the love of her life, Diego Rivera, whom she married in 1929.
