Presented by Armando Droulers

As a preview to Florida Grand Opera’s March performances of Frida,an opera by Robert Xavier Rodriguez, art historian Armando Droulers will present the lecture, Frida Kahlo – An Anguished Brush.

Iconic Mexican artist Frida Kahlo suffered from agonizing physical pain through much of her life, and her stormy marriage to Diego Rivera was an additional source of psychological trauma. Despite these hardships, Frida Kahlo produced an extraordinary body of work, including 55 self-portraits.

Following the lecture, guests are invited to view the exhibition Remember to React which includes works by Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera from NSU Art Museum Fort Lauderdale’s Pearl and Stanley Goodman Collection of Latin American Art.

This lecture is sponsored by The Opera Society.
