  • The Blue House: the Intimate Universe of Frida Kahlo
    The Blue House: The Intimate Universe of Frida Kahlo “Never in life will I forget your presence. You found me torn apart and you took me back full and complete.” Frida Kahlo By delving into the knowledge of Frida Kahlo's legacy, one discovers the intense relationship that exists between Frida, her work and her home. Her creative universe is to be found in the Blue House, the place where she was born and where she died. Following her marriage to Diego Rivera, Frida lived in different places in Mexico City and abroad, but she always returned to her family home in Coyoacan. Located in one of the oldest and most beautiful neighborhoods in Mexico City, the Blue House was made into a museum in 1958, four years after the death of the painter. Today it is one of the most visited museums in the Mexican capital. Popularly known as the Casa Azul (the ‘Blue House’), the Museo Frida Kahlo preserves the personal objects that reveal the private universe of Latin America’s most celebrated woman artist. The Blue House also contains some of the painter’s most important works: Long Live Life (1954), Frida and the Caesarian Operation (1931), and Portrait of My Father Wilhelm Kahlo (1952), among others. In the room she used during the day is the bed with the mirror on the ceiling, set up by her mother after the bus accident in which Frida was involved on her way home from the National Preparatory School. During her long convalescence, while she was bedridden for nine months, Frida began to paint portraits.

  • My Frida Kahlo Story
    LAS MUJERES y LA CULTURA DE LA REVOLUCION FRIDA KAHLO As Obregon took charge, he began the task of winding down the violent military phase of the Revolution. Bitter fighting would continue but subside. His more formidable challenge was to translate the experience of the Revolution into palpable achievements. However, the nation was broke and broken; it was next to impossible to produce immediate results that would be visible to all, including the illiterate masses. Aesthetic achievement would have to substitute for immediate material results. Art would be drafted into the service of politics. Art before the Revolution was mostly an importation; it was the fashion to depreciate things Mexican. But art that emanated from the Revolution became a search for nativism. Obregon turned loose his cultural chieftain, Jose Vasconcelos, whose task was to build a "portfolio" that would draw its themes, spirit, and rationales from the aspirations of the Revolution. Vasconcelos would enlist artists Clemente Orozco, David Alfaro Siqueiros, and Diego Rivera. Mural art became the medium to express these indigenous themes in a spectacular and panoramic explosion of brilliant warmth and color. Diego Rivera was the most prolific and arguably Mexico's greatest muralist. Was he also Mexico's greatest painter? The following transposes a familiar dialogue : 'Who's Diego Rivera?" "He was married to Frida Kahlo," some might add, "twice." Frida Kahlo's venturesome nature and dramatic impact would not be suggested by the of tact that her life began and ended in the same place: in a southeast suburb of OMexico City, Coyoacan, in a one-story stucco house.

  • 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.

  • Self Portraits Artist Frida Kahlo Was One of Mexico's Greatest Artists Who Painted Mostly Self-Portraits After She Was Severely
    Self Portraits Artist Frida Kahlo was one of Mexico's greatest artists who painted mostly self-portraits after she was severely injured in a bus accident in 1925. During her recovery from the accident, Kahlo began her painting career. Kahlo later became politically active, fighting for the rights of the working class and poor people, and the rights of women. She exhibited her paintings in Paris and Mexico before her death in 1954. The Frida Kahlo self portrait below, is titled “Frieda and Diego Rivera,” 1931, and features a self portrait of the artist herself and her husband, painter and activist Diego Rivera. The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art provides us with a fun fact about the painting: “Microscopic examinations of this painting show us that Kahlo originally painted herself wearing a pink dress with blue decoration and pink shoes, instead of the green dress and red and green shoes she wears in the final painting. Look at the different colors Kahlo used to depict herself and her husband, the artist Diego Rivera. What do you think about the choice of colors for each of the figures?” Take a moment to explore this painting, thinking about and answering the following questions: ● What is happening in this painting? What do you see that makes you say that? ● How would you describe the people in the picture? Who do you think is the most important figure? What do you see that makes you think that? ● What clues in the painting tell you about who these people are and where they are from? Now it’s your turn to try your hand at creating a self-portrait.
