What movement(s) would the following Frida Kahlo paintings be from?
Self Portrait as a Tehuana
(Autorretrato como Tehuana)
Self Portrait on the Border Between Mexico and the United States
(Autorretrato en la frontera entre México y los Estados Unidos)
Thanks in advance!
Frida’s works are difficult to classify into movements as she herself didn’t want to be identified with a movement. However, there is a lot of Symbolism, Primitivism, folk art and Surrealist influences in her paintings.
