About the artwork

Frida is one of the most famous and popular artists in the world. She has inspired many people with her art, her life and her personality. She was a pioneer of the "selfie". She painted more than 50 self-portraits in which she expressed her feelings, her identity and her experiences. She used painting as a form of therapy to deal with the physical and emotional pain she suffered as a result of a serious bus accident, several operations, a miscarriage and a turbulent marriage to the artist Diego Rivera.
She was a strong representative of Mexican culture. She was proud of her heritage and often wore traditional Mexican clothing, jewellery and hairstyles. She also incorporated elements of Mexican folklore, history and religion into her art. She was a supporter of the Mexican revolution and socialism and was politically active in favour of workers', farmers' and women's rights. In particular, Frida was a feminist icon. She was an independent, strong and courageous woman who did not allow herself to be restricted by social expectations and conventions. She was one of the few female artists to achieve recognition and success in her time. She was also open about her sexuality and had several affairs with men and women, including the painter Pablo Picasso and the singer Josephine Baker. She was an original and innovative artist. She created a unique style that combined elements of Surrealism, Expressionism and Naïve Art.
