Feet, what do I need you for when I have wings to fly?
Frida Kahlo ***I’d like to say the same about my knee
Happy Birthday Frida Kahlo!
Mexico 1992, a set on Flickr.
Yesterday since I was confined to nursing my bad knee, i spent time scanning old photos. It allowed me to relive one of my favorite vacations. In 1992, I traveled to Chapala and Guadalajara mexico. This is where my love of mexican art bloomed. After viewing Orozco’s “el Hombre de Fuego” in Hospicio Cabañas, I dove into his work and the work of his peers - Diego Rivera and especially Frida Kahlo.
Nickolas Muray made some of my favorite portraits of Frida Khalo. I love love LOVE the color carbon prints! The depth of color can not be duplicated in digital.
Frida & Diego in Atlanta together next year - my calendar is marked and I plan to go more than once. The High will be the only US venue for this exhibition.
