The Mexican painter Frida Kahlo was seriously injured at a young age and lived with pain ever since. Her creativity seemed to be triggered by the troubled and turbulent life she led. From her bed, Kahlo created another world through her paintings. To Kalpana Raghuraman, Kahlo represents the  strength, courage and boundlessness of the human spirit. In this solo performance, Raghuraman shares the indomitable spirit of Frida Kahlo. The dance is co-produced by Korzo Theater, Netherlands, with light design and music compilation by Peter Lemmens and video by Josanne Buiting.

The Spirit of Frida, 16 August, 7 pm, Gati Dance Forum, S-17 Khirkee Extension, opposite Select Citywalk, Delhi. For more information, call 99714-06113 or write to [email protected].
