  • Family Guide (English)—Frida Kahlo, Diego Rivera
    This family gallery guide introduces you to a very important collection of artworks. Just as some of you may collect things that you like, so did the husband- and-wife team of Jacques and Natasha Gelman. They acquired many works of art by their friends Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo, who were married. Diego and Frida were both respected artists. Diego was already the most celebrated of all Mexican artists before he became friends with Jacques and Natasha. In 1931, a huge exhibition of Diego’s work was held at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. He was well known for the large public murals he created in Detroit, New York, and San Francisco, as well as in Mexico. Since the 1980s, Frida has become even more famous than Diego. Her intense self-portraits have made her face familiar around the world. COVER: Bernard Silberstein (American, 1905–1999). Frida Paints “Diego on My Mind” while Diego Watches, 1940. Gelatin silver print, 17 x 14 in. The Jacques and Natasha Gelman Collection of 20th Century Mexican Art and the Vergel Foundation. © Bernard Silberstein About the Artist: Frida Kahlo Frida Kahlo was born in Mexico City, Mexico, in 1907. When she was eighteen years old, Frida was riding a bus when it was hit by a DESCRIPTIVE WORDS streetcar. The accident left her with extensive injuries. During her recovery, while she was confined to her bed, she began painting to relieve boredom. Frida painted throughout the rest of her life, but childhood: an early stage of growth she had only two solo exhibitions of her works while she was alive.

  • Gallery Card Frida Kahlo, Diego Rivera, and Mexican Modernism
    Like Rivera, Kahlo infused her work with mexicanidad, an identification with Mexico’s indigenous roots. About a third of her paintings are self-portraits, which she started creating while still a teenager after a bus accident left her disabled and often bedridden. Spending hours before a mirror, she studied her face and its v-shaped unibrow, deep brown eyes, and mustache. She Born in Russia, Jacques Gelman (1909–1986) pursued a career in Mexico as a carefully coiffed her hair with movie producer during the country’s Golden Age of Cinema. He made a star braids, and the indigenous of Mario Moreno, a comedic actor whose character Cantinflas is beloved in the Mexican clothing she wore Spanish-speaking world. In 1941, Jacques married Natasha Zahalka (1912–1998), became part of her personal another Eastern European émigré, and two years later he commissioned a full-length iconography.
