Her Achievements

A work she created was her self-portrait, ''Self Portrait with Thorn Necklace and Hummingbird''.

It was she who received the National Prize of Arts and Sciences from the Ministry of Public Education in 1946.

The stereotypes she broke

1. She challenged gender stereotypes. 2. She was openly bisexual. 3. She painted real women and real experiences.

The standards she sets for herself are her own. Society used to devalue and label as unfeminine and ugly the characteristics it valued. She was therefore a feminist. Frida also dressed in a particular way that was very different from the daily dress of Mexican women at that time.

Presentation Transcript

Frida Kahlo (1907-1954)

The Love Embrace of the Universe, the Earth (Mexico), Myself,Diego and Senor Xolotl.1949

The Love Embrace of the Universe, the Earth (Mexico), Myself,Diego and Senor Xolotl.1949 Discussion • Discuss how Kahlo has made links between human beings and the natural world in both these paintings. • How do you understand the significance of the different elements of the paintings, for example the dog and the maguey plant. • Why has Kahlo chosen to represent both night and day in ‘The Love Embrace’? • Discuss the composition of the paintings and how she has achieved a senses of balance. Think about the use of colour and other formal elements such as perspective.

Frida and Diego Rivera. 1931

The Two Fridas 1939

Discussion Although symbols and stereotypes of femininity abound in her work, Kahlo’s expressions of ambiguity and her tendency to cross-dress work to undermine such stereotypes. Even when she adopted the stereotypical cultural role of Tehuana, she did so knowingly. This was significant within Mexican culture which was forcefully macho. Playing around with and challenging female stereotypes has been one of the major themes in work by women artists in the second half of the twentieth century, against which Kahlo needs to be understood as an avant-garde force for change. Discuss Whether you think stereotypical ideas about femininity and masculinity persist today, and how Kahlo challenges such ideas in her work, for example exaggerating features such as her eyebrows and moustache, or in Diego’s case, drawing attention to the feminine curve of his belly. • For Kahlo, each day was in its own way a political performance through the significance of the Tehuana dress, jewellery and hairstyle that she adopted. Discuss with pupils the importance of dress, of costume and national identity.

Tracey Emin. Everyone I Ever Slept With 1963-95 Links to other works When considering Kahlo’s personal life and relationships, there are fertile links to be made between her work and that of British artist Tracey Emin. Her work ‘Everyone I Ever Slept With’, (destroyed by the Momart warehouse fire in 2004) recorded by stitching on the inside of a tent, the names of everyone, as the title states, she had ever shared a bed with.

Sarah Lucas Self Portrait Eating a Banana 1990 This work by Lucas challenges ideas about femininity by adopting a traditionally masculine stance.

Self-Portrait on the Border Line Between Mexico andThe United States 1932

My Dress Hangs There 1933

Discussion • By careful analysis of the objects and references included in the paintings, work out what Kahlo’s views are on both Mexcio and the United States of America. • How does Kahlo make her argument in these paintings (for example, use of formal devices such as composition, contrast). • Discuss how she includes her own personality in the painting? • What is she suggesting about technology? Do you agree? • In the future, what do you consider the monuments of twenty-first century western civilisation will be? (For example motorways.) What will they tell future archaeologists about our time?

Self-Portrait with Monkey 1938

Self-Portrait with Monkey and Parrot 1942

Discussion • Describe Kahlo’s pose and expression. What might this tell you about her character? • Where does Kaho’s gaze rest in this image? What might she be focusing on? • What are the links between Kahlo herself and the objects she has included in the painting? And what about the background? Why do you think she has chosen to include such objects or to show herself against such a backdrop? • Who do you think Kahlo made have made this self-portrait for? For example do you think she had someone in mind when she painted it, or do you think she painted it for herself? Or perhaps you think the viewer does not matter to Kahlo?

Andy Warhol Marilyn Diptych 1962 Links to other works Warhol emphasises key features belonging to Marilyn Monroe (red lips, blonde hair, repeated imagery which refers to how many times her photograph was taken), emphasising the elements that are put together to make the image of the person ‘Marilyn Monroe’. It’s interesting to compare images such as this, as well as photographs of Marilyn Monroe, to Kahlo’s own self-portraits where she repeatedly shows the same aspects of herself and her look.

The Broken Column 1944

The Little Deer 1946

Discussion • What is the overall mood of each painting? • How do the formal qualities of the painting add to the mood (for example the size of the painting, the colour, brushstrokes etc)? • Discuss the different ways in which Kahlo shows her physical and emotional pain in these two paintings, then talk about how she also shows her strength and courage. • How does Kahlo fit in with the background or landscape in which she shows herself? For example does the landscape relate to her in any way or does she seem separate from it?

Links to other works Rebecca Horn While Horn was bed-ridden for a number of months, she adapted her art practice to include using hand and body extensions that extended her range of touch and perception (see classroom activities section below). Compare Kahlo’s practice to Horn’s, thinking about the opportunities or restrictions involved in making art while confined to bed, and in making positive use of a disability to further explore art practice.
