Frida Kahlo: The expressions of life in one hundred self-portraits


Listen Later

This is an artist who has an essential place in the history of modern art. Looking back at her life, we will find that pain and struggle were the constant themes of her artistic creation. Polio at 6 years old, a severe car accident at 18 years old, and amputation late in life, fate had been playing a merciless joke on her. " The world has kissed my Soul with its pain, asking for its return in Songs."

At the same time, she was the first Latin American artist whose work was exhibited at the Louvre. Having never received any art education, however, she left a rich artistic treasure for this world. More than 200 paintings are the best proof of her short but splendid life.
