RE: ADSactly Culture - The Life of Tortured Artists #5 (Frida Kahlo)
I love Frida! Not only in Mexico, in all of Latin America she is considered a cultural icon, one of the most "machas" women in the history of art. Her life was not easy, among diseases, vices and loves. Frida was so angry about Diego's infidelity that she not only cheated on him with men, but also had relationships with women. From time to time I like to quote two of her most famous phrases: "I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but the evil ones learned to swim..." and "Feet, why do I want them if I have wings to fly", which although they are very beautiful, reflect two great problems in Frida's life: her problem with alcohol and her lack of mobility. Thanks for this post, @honeydue!
