 Frida
Kahlo (July 6, 1907 – July 13, 1954) was a Mexican painter who depicted
the indigenous culture of her country in a style combining Realism,
Symbolism and Surrealism. An active communist supporter, she was married
to Mexican muralist and cubist painter Diego Rivera. She is widely known
for her self-portraits often expressing her physical pain and suffering
through symbolism. In the last three decades she has gained admiration
in Europe and the US. In 2002, a biographical movie about Frida Kahlo
was released (Frida, staring Salma Hayek). This sparked even further
interest in the life and arts of Frida Kahlo. Her house in Coyoacán,
Mexico is a museum and visited by a large number of tourists every year.This year marks Frida's 100th birthday - read more about this fascinating artist and her turbulent life: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frida_Kahlo
