My Cubist Paintings Are My Most Mexican.

To Be An Artist, One Must . . . Never Shirk From The Truth As He Understands It, Never Withdraw From Life

Never Before Had A Woman Put Such Agonizing Poetry On Canvas As Frida Did

My Cubist Paintings Are My Most Mexican.

All Art Is Propaganda. ... The Only Difference Is The Kind Of Propaganda. Since Art Is Essential For Human Life, It Can't Just Belong To The Few. Art Is The Universal Language, And It Belongs To All Mankind. All Painters Have Been Propagandists Or Else They Have Not Been Painters. ... Every Artist Who Has Been Worth Anything In Art Has Been Such A Propagandist. ... Every Strong Artist Has Been A Propagandist. I Want To Be A Propagandist And I Want To Be Nothing Else. ... I Want To Use My Art As A Weapon.

July 13, 1954 Was The Most Tragic Day Of My Life. I Had Lost My Beloved Frida Forever. To Late Now I Realized That The Most Wonderful Part Of My Life Had Been My Love For Frida.
