RomanceMajor Subplot

„ Meine Malerei trägt die Botschaft des Schmerzes in sich.“ Frida Kahlo (1907 bis 1954) lernte den Schmerz sehr früh kennen: mit sechs Jahren eine Polio-Erkrankung, mit achtzehn ein Unfall, bei dem u.a. ihr Rückgrat mehrfach bricht. Doch die junge Frau gibt nicht auf, lernt Diego Rivera kennen, den großen Muralisten und Repräsentanten ihrer politisch wie kulturell im Umbruch befindlichen Heimat. Sie werden ein sagenumwobenes Paar, zusammengeschweißt in ihrem Eintreten für die ursprüngliche Kultur Mexikos ebenso wie im Kampf für den Kommunismus und im Erklimmen künstlerischer Höhen. Frida Kahlo schuf in ihrem bedeutenden Werk vor allem Selbstportraits und Stillleben. Die Kunsthistorikerin Christina Burrus zeichnet in dieser kompakten, reich bebilderten und mit vielen Dokumenten, Tagebuchaufzeichnungen und wissenschaftlichen Verweisen angereicherten Bildbiographie das außergewöhnliche Schicksal der Künstlerin nach, deren Werk in einer Mischung aus Grausamkeit und Humor, Arglosigkeit und Unverfrorenheit eine freie, schöne, mutige Frau beschreibt, die es gewohnt war, ihren Schmerz hinter Heiterkeitsausbrüchen zu verbergen.
