1 FRIDA KAHLO The Self Biographical Painter
2 Frida Kahlo was born in Mexico on July 6, 1907. Many tragedies occurred in Frida ユ s life, which in turn led her to become a strong and independent artist. She contracted polio at the age of five. As a result the illness caused her left leg to appear much thinner than her right, and it remained that way permanently
3 On Sept 17 th, 1925, when she was 18, Frida was involved in a serious trolley accident.
4 The accident left Frida with a broken spinal column, a broken collarbone, broken ribs, a broken pelvis, and 11 fractures in her right leg. Also, her right foot was dislocated and crushed, and her shoulder was out of joint. Frida spent a month lying on her back. She was encased in a plaster cast and enclosed in a boxlike structure. She began painting to pass the time while healing in bed. It became her lifelong passion.
5 She went through 32 different operations in attempt to quell some of her lasting pain.
6 In 1929, Frida married a highly esteemed muralist also from Mexico, named Diego Rivera. Frida and Diego Rivera (The Wedding Portrait)" Painted after two years of marriage to Rivera

8 Her marriage was full of unhappiness….they were both very different people and artists that had different political beliefs. Diego By Frida
10 "I paint self portraits because I am so often alone. Because I am the subject I know best."
11 Frida Kahlo may have felt alone, but through her paintings, she has connected with many others. In painting the subject she knows best, she depicts her own personal pain, fear, anguish, loss - and even joy. The rest of us marvel at how she can depict our heartbreak, our sadness, our loneliness. It's as if the physical pain that frida was forced to endure gave her the means to depict her feelings so honestly on canvas.
12 Frida is often classified as a Surrealist, however, she had no special explanations for her methods. She said only: "I put on the canvas whatever comes into my mind."
13 Little Deer Many of Frida ' s paintings represent the pain and suffering afflicted by tragedies that occurred in her life, including her unhappy marriage with Diego. Frida ' s eccentric art is recognized throughout the world. She is well known for expressing her feelings on canvas.
14 Self portraits can also show others who you are in other ways. "My Dress Hangs Here"
15 Frida Kahlo was from Mexico. In this self portrait she paints her memories of her homeland. "Self-Portrait on the Borderline Between Mexico and the United States," 1932 The self-portrait was painted while Kahlo and Rivera were in the United States.
16 My thoughts about Diego The marriage of Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo is one of the most famous alliances between artists. It is a well-known fact that they had a passionate and stormy relationship, filled with great love and also betrayals. They both had incredible talents and vision, but Diego's work would be more public and monumental, whereas Frida's was more personal and intimate in scale.

26 The Legend of her Cremation Legend has it when mourners gathered to watch Frida's cremation, a sudden blast of heat from the open incinerator doors blew her body bolt upright. Her hair was on fire from the flames, and blazed around her head like a halo. Frida's lips appeared to break into a seductive grin just as the doors closed shut. Thus, she gave her audience one last shock.
