Pain and passion.
\nThe original and intimate art of Mexico's most famous painter.
\nFrida Kahlo's (1907-1954) striking images were, in many ways, expressions of trauma. Through a near-fatal car accident at the age of 18, health problems, a turbulent marriage, miscarriages and childlessness, she transformed her afflictions into revolutionary art. In literal or metaphorical self-portraits, Kahlo looks at the viewer with an audacious gaze, rejecting her fate as a passive victim and interweaving expressions of her experience into a surreal-real hybrid language of life: hair, roots, veins, vines, tentacles and fallopian tubes.<\/p>\n
Many of her works also explore the communist political ideals that Kahlo shared with her husband Diego Rivera. The artist described her paintings as \"the most sincere and real thing I could do to express what I felt inside and outside myself.\" This book presents an extraordinary selection of Kahlo's works that explore her uncompromising determination as an artist, her importance as a painter, feminist icon and pioneer of Latin American culture.<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":5228,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[113],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-5118","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-livros","8":"first","9":"instock","10":"taxable","11":"shipping-taxable","12":"purchasable","13":"product-type-simple"},"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/silenthome.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/5118","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/silenthome.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/silenthome.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/silenthome.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5118"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/silenthome.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5228"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/silenthome.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5118"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/silenthome.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=5118"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/silenthome.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=5118"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/silenthome.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=5118"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
