Ghana – 2024 – 10 Cedis – Frida Kahlo

Description

Frida Kahlo, an icon of resilience and individuality, reshaped the world
of art with her deeply personal and strikingly original works. Known for
her vivid self-portraits, Kahlo’s art was a window into her tumultuous
life, marked by physical pain and emotional turmoil. Her unique blend
of surrealism and Mexican folk art captured the essence of her identity.
Kahlo’s exploration of themes like gender, postcolonialism, and selfidentity
resonated globally, challenging traditional norms and inspiring
countless artists. Her legacy lies in her fearless expression and the indelible
impact she left on both the art world and feminist discourse, celebrating
the strength in vulnerability.
The iconic female artist is vividly captured in a premium 2 oz silver coin by
Ghana, which artistically interprets Frida’s vibrant persona and her
extraordinary art.
