March 14: Frida (2002)
Frida Kahlo is a household name, but many don’t know the details of her artistic and her personal journey. Frida (2002) chronicles her life, from chronic pain due to an injury, to her discovery of art and her complex relationship with Diego Rivera. She was a bold woman and took the art world by storm, not only with her immense talent, but with her controversial relationships, her political affiliations and her sexual autonomy.
Please note that this film is rated R due to some nudity and sexual context.
April 11: Big Eyes (2014)
This biographical drama film, based on true events, traces the tumultuous relationship of artist Margaret Keane and her second husband, Walter, who fraudulently takes credit for her original paintings of children with large, saucer-like eyes. Walter Keane coerces her to paint on demand for over a decade, while he enjoys the fame of his wife’s art. Not only must she fight this challenging relationship, which ends in divorce, but she also must fight a legal battle to reclaim her art rightfully.
