Art History Alive: The Great Masters Series – Frida Kahlo (1907-1954) and Personal Realism in Mexico

Kahlo’s many self-portraits simultaneously record her appearance and her pain, which was both physical (polio and a bus accident) and emotional (her husband Diego Rivera). Although called a Surrealist, she said she was painting her own reality. Her subjects reveal the intimacies of her life; her very personal paintings provide viewers with a visual autobiography of a riveting personality and life.
