Note from the Editor This month’s featured paper doll is the Frida Kahlo Paper Doll. Frida Kahlo (1907-1954) was a Mexican painter known for her colorful, symbolic paintings as well as her introspective self-portraits. Kahlo faced critical health challenges: she contracted polio when she was six and at the age of 18, she was involved in a serious bus accident. Although Kahlo had aspirations of working in medicine, she began her career as a painter while she recuperated from her bus accident injuries. In 1928, three years after the accident, Kahlo reconnected with Diego Rivera, an artist who worked on a project at her school. In 1929, Kahlo and Rivera married. In 1938, Kahlo had a major exhibition at a New York City gallery, where she sold half of her 25 paintings and received two commissions, including one from Clare Boothe Luce, a wellknown magazine editor, journalist, and politician. In 1953, Kahlo received her first solo exhibition in Mexico. Her richly colorful work was influenced by Mexican culture and has been sometimes classified as surrealist; however, Kahlo stated, "I really don't know whether my paintings are Surrealist or not, but I do know that they are the most honest expression of myself, taking no account of the opinions and prejudices of others." While there may be a debate whether or not her work is surrealist, her stunning paintings definitely have had an enormous impact. Feminists took a great interest in her work in the 1970s and she is often viewed as an icon of female creativity.1,2 If you’re travelling or live near San Francisco, California; London, England; or Calgary, Alberta, Canada, consider visiting the following museums to learn more about the gifted Frida Kahlo: San Francisco Museum on Modern Art https://www.sfmoma.org/event/frida-kahlo-love-and-friendship-795/ Victoria and Albert Museum https://www.vam.ac.uk/exhibitions/frida-kahlo-making-her-self-up Glenbow Museum http://www.glenbow.org/exhibitions/frida-kahlo-her-photos/ In the meantime, enjoy the Frida Kahlo Paper Doll! - Nova Edwards
