About this Event
Frida Kahlo, Reconsidered
with Dr. Salomon Grimberg, Biographer
Join Dr. Salomon Grimberg, an acclaimed author and leading expert on the life of Frida Kahlo, for a lecture on Kahlo’s use of imagery to illustrate her struggles and sense of identity beginning before her birth. Grimberg will explore the events that affected Kahlo’s development as an artist. His talk will highlight how the artist references religious sources — Christian, pre-Hispanic, and Buddhist — to explain her life as well as her physical challenges.
