The exhibition, opening June 5 and running through Sept. 6, 2021, will be the most comprehensive presentation of Kahlo’s work displayed in the Chicago area in over 40 years. The 26-piece collection, on loan from the Museo Dolores Olmedo, features an array of oil paintings and works on paper spanning the life of Kahlo, a Mexican artist foundational to the 20th century art historical canon. Best known for self-portraits highlighting themes of identity, politics, sexuality and death, Kahlo channeled her childhood and personal struggles into her art and became an iconic figure and symbol of female empowerment, individual courage and Mexican pride. The exhibition includes pivotal pieces created throughout the artist’s life, including 19 oil paintings, representing over one tenth of the total number of Kahlo paintings in existence. Works from Kahlo’s early life follow a period when the artist was left bedridden for months after surviving a life-altering bus accident at the age of 18 and span her lifetime, concluding with a work completed the year of her death. Alongside the 26 original works, this multifaceted and immersive exhibition features a multimedia timeline with reproductions of Kahlo’s clothing, more than 100 photographic images from the artist’s life, a family-friendly children’s area, and a Frida Kahlo-inspired garden designed by Ball Horticultural Company enabling museum-goers of all ages to grasp an understanding of Kahlo’s life and work through a variety of contexts. The exhibition and related programming is organized by Frida Kahlo: Timeless Executive Director Diana Martinez (Director of the McAninch Arts Center) in collaboration with Justin Witte, Frida Kahlo: Timeless Curator (CCMA Curator). “Frida was very much a person of the people and this intimate, educational showcase brings works never before seen in the Chicago area to DuPage County,” said Frida Kahlo: Timeless Executive Director and McAninch Arts Center Director Diana Martinez. “This exhibition is one of kind and is not travelling elsewhere. In addition to the 26 original artworks that will be on view, we have developed a historical timeline, display of over 100 photographic images from the artist’s life, a poetry garden and children’s area which enrich the viewing experience. Our setting within a performing arts center and academic institution has provided us with resources not typically available to most museums, enabling us to present work by an iconic historical figure in a new light.” “The work in this collection maps the arc of Frida Kahlo’s exceptional life and career,” stated Frida Kahlo: Timeless and Cleve Carney Museum of Art Curator Justin Witte. “Frida Kahlo and her work were so interconnected that it is impossible to separate one from the other. That is also why her presence is still strongly felt in every piece in this exhibition. For exhibition visitors to have the opportunity to experience Kahlo’s life and work in the intimate and unique setting of the Cleve Carney Museum of Art will be a once in a lifetime experience.” Frida Kahlo: Timeless will be on view June 5 – Sept. 6, 2021 during the hours of 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday; and 10 a.m.-10 p.m. Thursday. The exhibition is presented by Bank of America and made possible by the support of Ball Horticultural Company, Wight & Company, Nicor, AeroMexico, The National Endowment for the Arts, DuPage Foundation, Illinois Office of Tourism and the College of DuPage Foundation.

Haciendo una revisión de las fuentes etnohistóricas, arqueológicas e históricas se manifiesta una necesaria puesta en valor que ayude a desterrar mitos sobre un animal de apariencia dual, existiendo ejemplares con y sin pelo. Sobre bases empíricas, a través de un sondeo realizado en el Colegio Pier Faure (La Piedad, Michoacán), hemos desarrollado una propuesta preliminar de divulgación para el público infantil. Mediante una actividad lúdico-formativa se persigue establecer lazos de empatía hacia este patrimonio vivo, entre niños y niñas de 5 a 12 años.

  • Frida Kahlo: Dress and Identity
    Frida Kahlo: Dress and Identity ART HISTORY MEXICO Cultural Journeys Mexico | Colombia | Guatemala www.tiastephanietours.com | (734) 769 7839 Frida Kahlo: Dress and Identity ART HISTORY MEXICO Many aspects of Frida Kahlo have been studied, pondered and admired. From her art, politics, love life, travails, and many others. A singular aspect of Frida Kahlo and her identity was her dress. Frida used dress consciously in the creation of her identity. Through dress, she crafted her image, displaying her cultural heritage from both Europe and Mexico. Who can imagine Frida Kahlo without visioning her Tehuana dress, the dress and region she most often adorned herself in, particularly for photos. But there were many others, from her “tomicoton” of Hueyapan, Puebla, her beautiful rebozos from Central Mexico, her Mazatec dress from Oaxaca and more. On this journey, we’ll explore how Frida used dress in the creation of her identity, and we’ll travel to some of the regions and communities of Mexico to meet the artisans, who to this day continue the legacy of hand crafting ethnographic clothing, an intimate expression of cultural identity. Program Highlights • Explore the National Museum of Anthropology • See her most famous painting: The Two Fridas at the Museum of Modern Art • Travel to Coyoacan to see her childhood home, “The Blue House” and to walk the neighborhood, LOCATION she and Diego often strolled hand and hand together (and eating tacos and drinking tequila!) • Attend lecture on Frida Kahlo’s ethnographic dress • Attend a rebozo expo-venta to learn of the iconic garment of Mexico, Frida often wore.

  • ¡Viva La Vida! Frida + Folk Art + Food November 4-8
    Frida Kahlo ¡Viva la Vida! Frida + Folk Art + Food November 4-8 Trip now open to the public Subject to Change The Heard Museum invites you to join the inaugural tour of its reinvigorated travel program for Circles Members. Immediately following the opening of the exhibition Frida Kahlo: Her Photos, curator Janet Cantley will lead patrons on this lively exploration of Mexico City. Together we will delve deeply into the soul of this colorful, complex, fascinating, and incredibly rich culture that is Mexico today. Our home base will be the Camino Real Hotel in Polanco, Mexico City’s most verdant and luxurious colonia. On the journey, we will explore all things Frida, with a good bit of Diego as well. Museo Frida Kahlo in Coyoacan, also known as Casa Azul for its brilliant blue hue, was the lifelong home of Kahlo. It has been lovingly maintained and stands as a paean to the life of Kahlo and her soul mate Diego Rivera. We will visit Museo Estudio Diego Rivera in the San Angel neighborhood, a conjoined double home-studio for the artists, designed by architect Juan O’Gorman. Art historian Dr. Sara Aroste will guide us through these remarkable spaces, filled with artifacts from the lives of these two national treasures. Following our visit to the studios, we will travel to Centro Histórico for a riveting survey of the sublime murals of the great Mexican muralists Rivera, Orozco, Siqueiros, and Tamayo. These revered works of art are sited within Palacio Nacional, Palacio Bellas Artes, and Antiguo Colegió de San Ildefonso.

  • Self-Representation in the Works of Busisiwe Nzama: an Analysis of the Frida ‘Little Travellers’ and More
    Self-representation in the works of Busisiwe Nzama: An analysis of the Frida ‘little travellers’ and more > Khaya Mchunu Fashion and Textiles Department, Durban University of Technology, Durban, South Africa [email protected] (ORCID: https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8451-0187) Abstract The focus of this article is on ‘little travellers’, a form of figure making associated with Woza Moya, an arts and craft project based in Hillcrest, KwaZulu-Natal. This article tracks and analyses the creation of two variations of the Frida ‘little traveller’ created by a Woza Moya bead artist, Busisiwe Nzama, in partnership with the Director of the project, Paula Thomson. My data-gathering process was conducted over an eleven-month period of observations interspersed with conversations, photographing and interviews with the objective of deepen- ing an understanding of the co-design and co-creation process between a stakeholder from the arts and craft non-governmental sector and societal practice partners. The study conducted found that an analysis of this process of partnership allows a deepened understanding of the historical realities of an individual expressed through beadworks. Some ‘little travellers’ by Nzama take their inspiration from the work of Mexican artist Frida Kahlo. As with Kahlo, much of Nzama’s work is concerned with self-representation. While Nzama and Kahlo treat the subject of self-representation differently, both artists indicate ways in which the self becomes infused in a work of art. This aspect of the ‘little travellers’ conceptualisation enables me to explore the similarities between Nzama and Kahlo’s bodies of work. Published by Keywords: Self-representation, Beadwork, Frida Kahlo, Woza Moya, Busisiwe Nza- ma, ‘Little travellers’.
