1930s -1954 · fruits, dedications and persistent life
Frida Kahlo's still lifes become particularly important in years when illness limits her movements. However, they are not secondary exercises. Still life: Pitahayas brings together open fruits whose flesh, seeds and skins evoke a vitality that is both seductive and vulnerable. Still life dedicated to Samuel Fastlicht from 1951 transforms fruits and inscription into a gift addressed to his dentist and friend; the dedication brings a personal relationship into the painted table. Still life, Roses draws attention to the petals and their fragile duration. Viva la Vida, famous composition of watermelons associated with the end of his life, carries one inscription that affirms life at the very heart of the cut fruit. Kahlo organizes each set by weight, opening, color and contact. The fruit is not decorative: it has skin, wounds, maturity and time. The selection "Still lifes of Frida Kahlo" notably compares Still Life: Pitahayas and Still Life dedicated to Samuel Fastlicht (1951). Its reading favors composition.
In these still lifes, cutting a fruit does not destroy life: it makes visible its flesh, its seeds and its ability to start again.
