Diego Rivera & Frida Kahlo Finger Puppet Set (aka Magnets)

More Magnets
The passionate, yet tumultuous marriage between Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera is legendary. Theirs was one of the most famous alliances between artists. His straying eye led Frida to take many lovers, male and female, including revolutionary Leon Trotsky.
Diego Rivera was among the greatest of the Mexican muralists that flourished after the country's revolution. Influenced by Cubism as well as pre-Columbian wall paintings, Rivera's works are characterized by his fervent belief in Marxism.
A Mexican painter deeply influenced by indigenous culture, Frida Kahlo suffered a series of physical traumas. She contracted polio at age 6, and at 19 sustained injuries in a bus accident from which she was plagued by extreme pain for the rest of her life. Drawing on her personal life, Kahlo's work is characterized by its stark portrayal of pain
Now you can create your own tumult on your fridge with these two great little magnets. Release your inner ethno-surrealist with Frida and paint a tiny leftist mural with Diego. Or, just enjoy knowing that they are together again, right in your own home!

Frida Kahlo & Diego Rivera Paper Dolls
More Paper Dolls
This wonderful collection includes 29 outfits for Frida and 2 complete outfits for Diego as well as 2 additional jackets. The printing is as vibrant as Frida's beloved strikingly vibrant colors of her homeland. The book measures approximately 12 by 9 inches and contains 16 pages of costumes.
Frida Kahlo is an exceptional figure in Mexican history; her relationship with Diego Rivera was, for 25 years, the center around which the outstanding national, artistic, social and political groups of the first half of the 20th century, revolved. However, far beyond her role as Diego's wife, Frida was an artist who made an unquestionable contribution to the Mexican expressive arts; she was also a woman of vanguardist social ideas who held considerable sway over her generation.
Frida carefully cultivated her image; as an adolescent, her short hair and dresses clearly belied her special tastes. Later she began to use regional costumes, above all those worn by the Tehuanas or women of the Tehuantepec zone of Oaxaca, Mexico. Often adorned with flounces, pleated ruffles and beautiful embroidery, these traditional garments would subsequently become her personal trademark. Her distinctive style blended imitation and find jewelry as well.
By using full-length dresses or jeans, Frida sought to conceal her thinner right leg, which, originally a consequence of polio, was worsened by an accident at the age of eighteen. Although Frida was destined to spend her life amid physicians, hospitals and operations, she never ceased to cultivate an image that portrayed her as brimming with life and color.
We can imagine the ritual of her daily preparations before embarking on everyday domestic tasks like taking Diego his lunch in a basket, or sitting to work at her easel. She painstakingly selected her skirt, blouse, shawl, ribbons and jewelry, braided her hair and completed this extraordinary harmony of color form and texture with the floral headdresses that crowned her image for the day.

My Art, My Life by Diego Rivera
More Books
Engrossing as a novel...throws a clear white light on one of the most spectacular artists of our time. - Chicago Sunday Tribune
this remarkable autobiography began with a newspaper interview the artist gave journalist Gladys March in 1944. From then until the artist's death in 1957, she spent several months each year with Rivera, eventually filling 2,000 pages with his recollections and interpretations of his art and life. Written in the first person, My Art, My Life is a richly revealing document of the painter who revolutionized modern mural painting, was a principal figure in launching the "Mexican Renaissance" and is ranked among the most influential artists of the 20th century.
As the colorful narrative unfolds, Diego Rivera seems always to be in the midst of political, artistic and romantic turmoil. As the reviewer for the New Republic observed, "Rivera reveals a keen appreciation of his prowess in art, sex and politics, and the record seems to be complete on the series of spectacular rows he got into over all three."
The book details his bold confrontations with dictators and presidents, the battles that erupted over his murals in Rockefeller Center and the Hotel de Prado, his tempestuous marriages to Lupe Marin and artist Frida Kahlo and much, much more.
This trade paperback measures 5-1/4 by 8-1/4 inches with 197 pages, including black and white photos and illustrations.

Mexican Sugar Skull Molds
Sugar Skulls are a traditional folk art from Central and southern Mexico. They are customarily used in Day of the Dead celebrations. Local village open air markets offer mounds of colorful sugar skulls for sale during the week preceding the Day of the Dead. Now you can make your own!
Over the last few years, people have been producing non-traditional candies and other items such as soaps and plaster images in the same manner of the sugar skulls.
Our molds can be used to make the traditional sugar skulls, chocolate skull candies and even soaps and plaster items.
Choose from either of our Posada-inspired mini molds: Frida Kahlo or Mini Traditional. The Frida mold is best for chocolate or soap as the intricate details are harder to decorate, but the traditional sugar mixture works well in either mold.
If you are going to make plaster or soap skulls, please do not use the same mold for making edible items.
Instructions included.
