Frida Kahlo – Ages 10 – Adult | Online Edition FRIDA KAHLO – AGES 10 – ADULT | ONLINE EDITION Step 1 - Introducing the Frida Kahlo Slideshow Guide MOTIVATION BEGIN READING HERE Have you ever kept a diary? What is a diary? (A JOURNAL, A PERSONAL RECORD OF EVENTS OR ACTIVITIES) Men and women commonly kept hand-written diaries in centuries past. Because diaries are private; we can often learn great truths about a person by reading their diary. During the last ten years of her life, our master artist, Frida Kahlo, kept a hand-written diary, which she illustrated with drawings in colored inks, pencil and watercolor. Click Start Lesson To Begin 1. PHOTO OF ARTIST’S DIARY The final entry in her diary near the time of her death shows a black, winged angel -- perhaps the angel of death. And Frida wrote: “I hope the exit is joyful -- and I hope never to come back -- Frida.” What do you think she meant by this statement? (ANSWERS WILL VARY) The fact is that Frida Kahlo loved the joys of life, but her life was so difficult, both physically and emotionally, that she did not want to “come back.” We’ll see how her paintings tell of her extraordinary life. Her paintings are like a diary. Let’s look at a photograph of Frida when she was a little girl. Click Next To Change Slide 2. PHOTO OF ARTIST - AGE 3 Frida was born in Mexico in a small town outside of Mexico City, the capital of Mexico. Her mother was Mexican. Her father was of German descent. He had immigrated to Mexico as a young man. Frida’s father was a professional photographer and took this picture of Frida at age three. Frida had three sisters. Her father seemed to have a special love for Frida. She was full of energy and very smart. He said of her, “She is the most like me.” When Frida caught polio at the age of six, her father helped her to recover by encouraging her to exercise and take part in sports activities. The polio left one leg weak, and it never grew properly. Children today do not get polio, because a vaccine is now available. She started elementary school late because of the polio, but she excelled enough to eventually qualify 1 FRIDA KAHLO – Ages 10 – Adult | MeetTheMasters Online Edition FRIDA KAHLO – AGES 10 – ADULT | ONLINE EDITION to attend the best high school in Mexico City. On her own, she started to study art history, and she took some art classes. But then, a terrible accident changed her life forever. In September of 1925, when she was only eighteen, Frida was riding in a bus, which was hit by a streetcar. She almost died from her injuries. Tragically, a pole went through her stomach area as she was thrown from the bus. When the rescue workers came to help all the injured passengers, they ignored her, because they thought she was already dead. She lay on the street with the pole inside her for almost an hour before someone noticed she was still breathing. Then they rushed her to the hospital where she managed to survive. After several months of being confined to bed, she began to paint. Now you’ll see a memory she painted four years after the accident. See if you can find Frida among the people. Click Next To Change Slide 3. THE BUS In this painting, we see a wide variety of people sitting on a bus -- from a businessman with his money bag to a barefoot mother, holding her baby wrapped in an orange REBOZO (ray-BO-zo) or shawl. (POINT OUT) Do you see a person who might be Frida? (THE YOUNG GIRL AT THE FAR RIGHT) Frida Kahlo remained a partial invalid throughout her life. She went on to have at least thirty-two corrective surgeries on her broken spine and right leg and foot over the next twenty-nine years of her life. After some operations, she wore a plaster body cast and was immobilized for weeks and could move only her arms and hands. She sometimes had to paint while lying down in bed. Her lifetime of paintings reflect the small triumphs and the great pain of her attempts to recover her health. And to her great sadness, she would never be able to have children. When she was well enough, Frida began to show her paintings to other artists. One of these artists was Diego Rivera (dee-AY-go ree-VAIR-ah), who liked her work and fell in love with Frida. They married when she was just twenty-two years old. Frida’s father was not happy about the marriage. He said it was like an elephant marrying a dove. Why would he say that? Well, here is the wedding portrait that Frida painted of herself and Diego Rivera. - Click Next To Change Slide 4. FRIDA AND DIEGO Who is the “elephant?” (DIEGO) Why? (HE IS BIG/FAT) Who is the “dove?” (FRIDA) Why? (SHE LOOKS LIKE SHE IS FLOATING LIKE THE DOVE ABOVE HER HEAD, HER EYEBROWS LIKE WINGS OF A DOVE) Diego Rivera was over six feet tall and weighed over 300 pounds. And tiny Frida adored him. After her marriage to Diego, she emphasized traditional Mexican culture in everything she did. She decorated their home 2 FRIDA KAHLO – Ages 10 – Adult | MeetTheMasters Online Edition FRIDA KAHLO – AGES 10 – ADULT | ONLINE EDITION with Mexican art and wore traditional Mexican clothing like Tehuana (tay-HWAH-nah) dresses, shawls, and jewelry. Let’s see how many details we can discover that show she was very proud of her Mexican HERITAGE. Let’s also discover her language and learn some of the Spanish words for the things we see painted here. Braided hair & ribbons: La Trenza (lah TREN-zuh) Dress: El Vestido (el ves-TEE-doe) Necklace: El Collar (el koh-LAHR) Shoes: Los Zapatos (los za-Pah-tohs) Shawl: El Rebozo (el ray-BO-zo) Let’s enjoy the beauty and pride in the Spanish language as Frida did and pronounce these words together. (REVIEW WORDS ABOVE) Now, let’s turn our attention to Diego, her husband. What is Diego Rivera wearing? (DARK BLUE SUIT, LIGHT BLUE SHIRT AND LARGE BELT WITH BROWN SHOES) Rivera is wearing American-style clothes. He holds his palette and brushes in his right hand, while his left hand delicately supports Frida’s hand. She portrays him as the artist, not herself. Why? (SHE LIVED TO SUPPORT HIM; SHE THOUGHT HE WAS A BETTER ARTIST; THIS WAS HIS PROFESSION; MEN WERE ARTISTS) Click Next To Change Slide 5. PHOTO OF FRIDA KAHLO After she married Diego, Frida traveled extensively in the United States and Europe. Diego Rivera was a famous mural painter who was in great demand. What is a MURAL? (PAINTING DONE ON A WALL OR CEILING, INSIDE OR OUTSIDE BUILDINGS) They lived for many months in San Francisco, New York, and Detroit while Diego worked on his murals. Frida walked the streets of these cities proudly wearing her Mexican dress. She would create quite a sensation as heads turned to stare at this attractive woman wearing such colorful dress. But Frida missed Mexico when they were in the United States. She showed how much in the next painting. - Click Next To Change Slide 6. SELF-PORTRAIT ON THE BORDER She is standing on the border between the two countries. What is she holding? (MEXICAN FLAG AND CIGARETTE) People were not aware yet during her lifetime of the negative affects of smoking. Does she make the United States’ side look like a desirable place to live? (NO) 3 FRIDA KAHLO – Ages 10 – Adult | MeetTheMasters Online Edition FRIDA KAHLO – AGES 10 – ADULT | ONLINE EDITION On the right side, in a narrow space, is her vision of the U.S. The flag is barely visible through the smoke belching out of the factory. Skyscrapers and machines, robot-like people, dominate the landscape. In the foreground, three machines radiate light and energy. All of them have electrical cords, one of which is plugged into Frida’s pedestal/stand. Does this seem like a pleasant place to live? (NOT TO FRIDA) What about the Mexico side? Notice how Frida has painted herself with her head turned toward the Mexico side of the painting. What do you see on the left? (ANSWERS WILL VARY) The Mexican side shows the sun shining its life-giving rays on the beautiful land and plants. She was proud of Mexico’s Indian history and painted an Aztec pyramid temple and some ancient sculptures. That kind of art is called PRE-COLUMBIAN, because it was made by the native civilizations before Christopher Columbus and other explorers discovered the New World. This painting shows us that Mexico represented life to Frida, and she longed to return. Did she show this longing in a dramatic, creative way? (YES) Click Next To Change Slide 7. PHOTO OF CASA AZUL (KAH-suh ah-ZOOL) Frida and Diego had quite a large collection of PRE-COLUMBIAN ART. They had sculptures all over the garden and house of Casa Azul, where Frida was born and lived most of her life. Can you translate Casa Azul? (BLUE HOUSE) It is now a museum and the house is still painted in the same bright blue. - Click Next To Change Slide 8. PHOTO OF FRIDA AND DIEGO AT CASA AZUL Today their collection of PRE-COLUMBIAN ART would be very valuable and would probably be displayed under glass in a museum to preserve it. Notice all the pieces just sitting outside! They also had a fun collection of animals: spider monkeys, parrots, a deer, and dogs.

  • 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.
