ART: Frida Kahlo

One of the most cherished icons of feminism and female creativity, Frida Kahlo was known for her portraits, self-portraits, & works inspired by the nature, artifacts, & popular culture of Mexico. In a folk-art style, she explored questions of identity, postcolonialism, gender, class & race in Mexican society. Her paintings often had strong autobiographical elements, & mixed realism with fantasy. Her revolutionary work has paved the way for many & is celebrated in galleries worldwide.
