Fridini obrazi Frida's faces

Ob tako neprivlačnem vremenu me je danes prijetno obarvala razstava Bolečina in strast,

posvečena Fridi Kahlo, ki sta jo v Mercator centru v Šiški pripravila Unikatna sanjalnica in Me Vi Art.

In such unattractive weather like today I was pleasantly coloured by an exhibition,

called Bolečina in strast (Pain and passion), which was organized by

Unikatna sanjalnica and Me Vi Art and is dedicated to Frida Kahlo.

Meni najljubša je Frida Ande Perdan, vsa v nežnih vijoličastih odtenkih, tako drugačna od močnih, živih barv, ki jih vedno povezujemo s to mehiško slikarko. Izstopata le strastno zlata uhana, ki šepetata o njeni sončni domovini in preroško nihljata o njeni žalosti.

Všeč mi je, kako je ujela tisti njen izraz, ki ga včasih uzrem na nekaterih njenih fotografijah.
Tisto prav posebno milino, ki prekriva vse, čeprav boli.

My favourite is Frida by Anda Perdan, all in gentle shades of purple, so different from bold vivid colours that are always associated with this Mexican painter. Earrings are the only ones that stand out with their passionate gold and they whisper about her sunny homeland
and they sway prophetically about her unfortunateness.

I like how she caught that expression of Frida that I sometimes have a glimpse of at looking at some of her photographs. That special grace that covers everything although it hurts.

Na vseh slikah je ista portretiranka, pa vendar se zdi, kot da bi bila vsaka od njih druga oseba.
Vsi njeni obrazi s strastjo in z bolečino poženejo kri v brezoblično sivino, obrazi ustvarjalcev,
skriti v zaodrju, pa vdahnejo življenje v ta pust dan.

On all of those paintings there is the same woman, and yet it seems like each of them is a person of her own. All her faces with passion and pain start the blood running into a shapeless greyness

and hidden faces of the artists behind breathe the life into this dull day.
