Frida's Father

Despite the sufferings of ill health, Guillermo Kahlo made pictures that remain a legacy to Mexican art and culture. Like daughter, like father...
by Gregg Thompson 

Mexican artist Frida Kahlo shared many things with her father; she had his dark eyes and his powerful intellect, and the inspired restiveness of the one was common to the other. Both daughter and father experienced devastating accidents while young, both suffered from chronic illness afterwards and both were artists.

Frida Kahlo, 1951, Photographer: unknown
Frida was Guillermo Kahlo’s third of six daughters, and his favorite. He doted on her as much as his dour and ascetic personality would permit, and especially encouraged his daughter’s vibrant intellectual curiosity. “Frida is the most intelligent of my daughters,” Guillermo once said.

The canopy bed with ceiling mirror presented in the Frida Kahlo Exhibition has been meticulously reproduced in size and materials and the reconstuction of her bedroom includes a variety of photographs that adorned her walls.  These photographs are an interesting representation of Frida’s personal and political beliefs.

Frida Kahlo’s bed is probably the most iconic piece of furniture in her house.  Frida painted her bed (in “The Dream” or “The Bed”, 1940, Painting #76) and appeared on it at her first and last solo exhibition in Mexico City.  She even died in the same bed.  In Julie Taymor’s 2002 film “Frida”, the bed is used as a recurring theme associated with the artist.

One photo displays the portraits of Marx, Engels, Lenin, Stalin and Mao and is of particular historical interest as it illustrates Frida Kahlo political convictions.

Numerous photographs document Frida Kahlo in her bedroom over the years; this has allowed the Curators of the exhiition to faithfully reproduce a section of her bedroom as it was when Frida Kahlo lived in the Blue House. 
This includes a gold watch hanging from her bed, the Amuzco embroidered bedcover, books, colored glass beads,her favorite phone, small Maya sculpture and Mexican handicraft works.

The Maya and Aztec artifacts

BildFrida Kahlo and the Maya and Aztec artifacts.
As important as the paintings it is essential to show the objects which Frida surrounded herself with in her Blue House.

The Maya and Aztec artifacts, which Diego was an avid collector of, are extremely important to understand the symbolism of her paintings. We know that Frida Kahlo used to paint what she saw in her house, showing these pieces gives the visitors a better understanding of the figures, or "idols", as she called them, she used as a theme in her paintings.
From the Kunstmusem collection, here in show in Baden-Baden and San Diego a number of Maya, Aztec reproductions matching Frida's paintings.
