	Frida Kahlo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Kahlo was noted for her unconventional appearance, declining to remove her facial hair (she had a small mustache and unibrow which she exaggerated in self portraits), and for her flamboyantly styled clothing, drawn largely from traditional Mexican dress.
		Kahlo was born Magdalena Carmen Frieda Kahlo y Calderón in her parents' house in Coyoacán, which at the time was a small town on the outskirts of Mexico City.
		Her father, Guillermo Kahlo (1872-1941), was a German who was born in 1871 in Pforzheim, Germany as Carl Wilhelm Kahlo to Lutheran parents whose antecedents, craftsmen, soldiers, gingerbread bakers and sluice keepers, have been traced back to the 16th century.

	Frida Kahlo Biography - Oil Painting Reproductions
		In 1929, when Kahlo was 22 and Rivera 42, the two were married in the Coyocán courthouse, though Kahlo’s mother did not attend the wedding because she hoped her daughter could find a more attractive, conventional match.
		Her repeated inability to have children was a source of pain for Kahlo, who expressed this frustration in her paintings through the major themes of childbirth, blood and fertility.
		When Kahlo saw that she was second in line, she abandoned her own artistic aspirations and became a good housewife, bringing lunch to Rivera’s workplace and devotedly hanging around him.

		Frida Kahlo (July 61907 – July 13, 1954) was a Mexican painter of the indigenous culture of her country in a style combining Realism, Symbolism and Surrealism, an active communist supporter, and wife of the Mexican muralist and cubist painter Diego Rivera.

	Frida Kahlo
		Kahlo inherited a duality in her mindset that paralleled Aztec culture itself, where multiple layers of meaning in numerous facets of cultural expression existed.
		Kahlo remained loyal to the Mexico that was in danger of being overwhelmed by social and political change.
		It has been suggested that Kahlo invented aspects of her medical condition, that a number of her operations were not in fact required, and that her death was as a result of suicide, rather than a complication of her poor health.

	The Johns Hopkins News-Letter
		Frida Kahlo is one of the most fascinating figures of her time, a Mexican surrealist known for the psychological intensity of her paintings; a woman of rare flamboyance, forceful character and sharp intelligence who effortlessly held her own among the elite of Mexico, the United States and Europe.
		The reason for this is that Kahlo is too dominant and complex a figure to represent using only the first person; the depth of her experiences, her torment, introspection and unique sense of self make it impossible for an author to assume her voice and consciousness.
		Cristina's speech is direct, earthy and crisp, but she lacks the intuition or sympathy which would have given her voice a greater depth.

		Kahlo was attracted to him, and not knowing quite how to deal with the emotions she felt, expressed them by teasing him, playing practical jokes, and by trying to excite the jealousy of the painter's wife, Lupe Marin.
		Kahlo, at this stage, was regarded chiefly as a charming appendage to a famous husband, but the situation was soon to change.
		At first it seemed that Kahlo would be too ill to attend, but she sent her richly decorated fourposter bed ahead of her, arrived by ambulance, and was carried into the gallery on a stretcher.

		Included among the highlights this Spring are Frida Kahlo’s sensitive portrait of her sister, Cristina, Rufino Tamayo’s evocative Serenata a la Luna, and Roberto Matta’s Morphology of Desire, which established the artist among the Parisian Surrealists working in the 1930s.
		Frida Kahlo’s austere portrait of her sister Cristina is a refined and contemplative work, painted in 1928 when Kahlo was influenced by Renaissance and Mannerist portraiture.
		At the time Kahlo was very close to her younger sister, Cristina, whose amiable personality and quiet composure were the opposite of Frida’s volatile and extroverted nature.

	Frida - Julie Taymor, Selma Hayek, Alfred Molina, Antonio Banderas - CIA
		In addition to being a great artist, Frida Kahlo was also a bisexual and a communist, struggling with an abusive husband, a life of wracking pain following a trolley accident, the amputation of a leg and, finally, drug and alcohol abuse that killed her at age 47.
		Kahlo is said to have remarked "I have suffered two big accidents in my life, one in which a streetcar ran over me. The other was Diego." (This is paraphrased to fine effect in the film.) Diego Rivera, superbly realised by Alfred Molina, became Frida's other half both personally and artistically.
		Frida Kahlo deserves the same, and the viewer feels as if Taymor is trying, but not allowed, to serve her subject.
