Frida Kahlo – Queen of the selfies
Frida Kahlo (1907-1954) is an example of perseverance and courage for many in the world. She grew up in Mexico and is considered by many to be Latin America's greatest artist. Mexican politics and culture were a source of inspiration for Frida Kahlo for her art and turbulent life.

Famous are her intimate self-portraits – selfies avant la lettre – in which she explores her own identity and experiences. She started painting in a bed, where she ended up after an accident. She can't do many, but she can paint. This was the beginning of her, nowadays very famous, series of self-portraits. Here she finally made 55 of them.

Her impressive works of art, turbulent life and special lifestyle make Kahlo grow into a worldwide icon and also a cult figure. Her paintings are merciless, full of pain, love, joy, comfort and colors.
