I was still a little surprised when I saw such an exact number in the biography. This experience was written in the life of the Mexican female painter FRIDA KALO.
Reading her biography two years after watching the movie still seems to be able to touch the small tremors aroused by her full and intense paintings at that time.
FRIDA KALO is another female painter I like besides Georgia O'keeffe. Different from O'keeffe's realistic style, FRIDA expresses more of a surreal idea, and O'keeffe's paintings are bright Compared with the elegant and graceful style, her colors are strong and strong, and the portraits are full of grotesque and seemingly penetrating eyes. To understand her paintings, it may be necessary to understand her life. She adjusted the gift of life into the colors on the drawing board to express her heart and become a clue for future generations.
At the age of eighteen, she was involved in a car accident, the lever of the bus went through her body, and the golden powder was sprinkled on FRIDA, who was covered in blood. She was beautiful, like a statue of a goddess suffering in a bottle.
The car accident brought her severe physical pain and the reality of losing her right to be a mother.
But met Diego. Rivera, she suffered a greater love pain with her broken body.
Submerged in alcohol and confused love still can not alleviate the pain of body and mind.
So she kept painting, painting colorful butterflies on plaster coats, painting herself lying on the bed, and painting the fetus in a bottle in the post-abortion ward. She will use colored paint to vent all her inner turmoil.
His husband, friend, teacher, comrade-in-arms - Diego Li. Rivera said:
her paintings, some sweet as a smile, some despair as the suffering of life.
She is the greatest female painter in the history of Mexico, like the strong and gloomy red bougainvillea unique to Mexico, like the large agave blooming in the deserts of Latin America, Frida, accompanied by a life of pain and agitation, left behind A touching painting and a last word that deviates from life.
Death dances beside her, and she has fought against suffering all her life with these words at the end of her life:
"I hope my death is happy, and I don't want to come back."
