Frida Kahlo

Painter of Pain and Power

Frida Kahlo (1907–1954) was a Mexican painter whose self-portraits became icons of identity, suffering, and resistance. Her work explored the politics of the body, the violence of love, and the radical act of self-expression. Though often bedridden, she created some of the most enduring visual philosophies of the 20th century.
