Hear from Mexican art historian Rita Eder as she explores Frida Kahlo’s engagement with science, architecture, theology, material, and artistic techniques through the paintings "My Dress Hangs There" (1933), "Roots" (1943), and "Moses" (1945).
The sophisticated interplay of knowledge, aesthetics, and cultural critique in these paintings challenges traditional narratives around her often autobiographical work and offers a multidimensional vision of Kahlo’s art and identity.
Programming for "Frida Kahlo’s Month in Paris: A Friendship with Mary Reynolds" is made possible by the Frank J. Mooney Memorial Fund.
