"Frida Kahlo's self-portraits from the 1940s, featuring monkeys hanging from her neck, were actually painted during a difficult period in her life, marked by a messy divorce and financial struggles. The documentary film 'Frida,' produced by TIME Studios and directed by Carla Gutierrez, explores how Kahlo channeled her personal tragedies into her art, creating the vibrant surrealist paintings that made her an icon. Through a combination of animation, archival footage, and personal writings, the film offers a unique perspective on Kahlo's life and art, presenting her own words and those of her intimates. It highlights how painting provided catharsis for Kahlo during her miscarriages and her husband's infidelities, ultimately helping her find her voice as an artist." [Extracted from the article] |
