Unusual Frida Juried Art Exhibition at Osceola Arts!

Honoring the legacy and the life of Frida Kahlo. She was without a doubt one of the greatest artists of the 20th century. Frida Kahlo is a mysterious, elegant, and passionate woman whose lifeline was freedom. Society often only sees heroes in men, yet strong heroes are found in anyone who stands by their own side and values when no one else will, and someone who refuses to allow their obstacles to overpower them. Regardless of social status, gender, or race, heroes make a powerful impact on others because they don’t give in to society’s pressures and have confidence in their actions. Frida found a way to take her agonizing life and shape it into something purposeful, demonstrating her courage when not hesitating to be the first to take the truth of her traumatic experiences and put meaning into them through her paintings. By taking her physical and emotional struggles and turning them into statements of fortitude, Frida Kahlo exhibits her vast courage because of her ability to unfold a meaning within her insecurities.
