This story originally ran on Dec. 3, 2020.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[dropcap]T[/dropcap]hese days, Frida Kahlo’s image is all around us. Her iconic eyebrows and piercing gaze have been immortalized on T-shirts, tote bags and tequila bottles. There’s even a \u003ca href=\"https://barbie.mattel.com/shop/en-us/ba/inspiring-women-series/barbie-inspiring-women-series-frida-kahlo-doll-fjh65\">Frida Barbie doll\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But before her image became so commercialized and ubiquitous, Kahlo was just a budding artist waiting for her big break. Married to the older and already famous artist Diego Rivera, Kahlo was determined to make a name for herself, and her time in San Francisco would help her do that.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Frida and Diego Come to San Francisco\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>It was a place she called “the city of the world,” and she often dreamed of it as a teenager, says University of San Francisco professor and author of \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://fridakahlojourney.com/index.html\">Frida in America\u003c/a>\u003c/em>, Celia Stahr. As she and Rivera make their way to San Francisco in 1930, she doodles a portrait of herself set against a backdrop of how she imagined the city to be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When they get to San Francisco, she shows it to Diego and he just marvels at how much it looks like what they’re seeing before them, kind of like she already knew what it was going to look like even though she’d never been [here],” says Stahr. “So there’s a sense of destiny that she was supposed to come here.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[baycuriouspodcastinfo]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite the fact that it was the Great Depression and paid work opportunities for American artists were scarce, Rivera landed two prestigious mural commissions: one at the \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfai.edu/about-sfai/diego-rivera-mural\">San Francisco Art Institute\u003c/a> and another at the Pacific Stock Exchange building, now called the City Club of San Francisco. His patrons hoped that Rivera’s fame would bring prestige to the local art scene and help jump-start a mural movement in the bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Rivera was a controversial pick for the Stock Exchange. As a member of the Mexican Communist Party, Rivera imbued his politics in his large-scale public murals. Many San Francisco artists were outraged that an outspoken communist would paint in the city’s “citadel of capitalism” and took to the newspaper to express their opposition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11848996\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 383px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11848996 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/AAK-0313.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"383\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/AAK-0313.jpg 383w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/AAK-0313-160x167.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 383px) 100vw, 383px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Rivera at work on the ‘Allegory of California’ mural at the Pacific Stock Exchange. \u003ccite>(San Francisco History Center, San Francisco Public Library)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“I believe he is the greatest living artist in the world and we would do well to have an example of his work in a public building in San Francisco. But he is not the man for the Stock Exchange building,” argued painter Maynard Dixon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Where his critics saw offense, his supporters saw beauty. Rivera’s masterful use of the fresco technique, applying pigment to wet plaster, fascinated local artists who eagerly wanted to learn the craft.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In one of the many letters Kahlo wrote to her family about the Bay Area, she notes the nonstop attention Rivera attracted. “The poor guy can’t even go to the bathroom in peace because they’re bugging him all day,” she wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 23-year-old Kahlo had only been painting for five years, and the local press merely regarded her as the wife of the famous Mexican muralist.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She hasn’t had that much experience. She hasn’t really found her artistic voice quite yet,” explains Celia Stahr.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Soirees, Sketching and Sightseeing\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>In their new home at 716 Montgomery St., not far from North Beach and Chinatown, Kahlo was surrounded by artists who energized her creative process, says Stahr.

The Greek colony is also very interesting and the Japanese, but most of all the Chinese,” Frida wrote in a letter to her mother.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She just gushes about Chinatown and she writes about it quite a bit. It reminded her very much, she said, of home. She writes about how she’s convinced that the Mexican people and the Chinese people are connected to one another,” says Stahr.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Letters detail how the firecrackers during Chinese New Year festivities reminded Kahlo of street fairs back in Mexico. Silks and other handmade fabrics sold in the shops of Chinatown also caught her eye. She purchased a few to embellish her red leather boots and make into Mexican-style skirts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kahlo’s style definitely caught the attention of San Franciscans. Her indigenous dress, influenced by the Zapotec women of Tehuantepec, stirred so much excitement on the streets of San Francisco that she reportedly stopped traffic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11848998\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 345px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11848998 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/AAF-0633.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"345\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/AAF-0633.jpg 345w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/AAF-0633-160x186.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 345px) 100vw, 345px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kahlo painting a portrait of Mrs. Jean Wight in San Francisco \u003ccite>(San Francisco History Center, San Francisco Public Library )\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“The gringas seem to like me a lot and they are really impressed by all the dresses and rebozos I brought with me, they gape at the jade necklaces and all the painters want me to model for the portraits,” Kahlo wrote to her mother.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her bold look catches the attention of well-known photographers Imogen Cunningham and Edward Weston, who ask her to pose for them in San Francisco. Since Kahlo was the daughter of a photographer, she was a natural in front of the camera. A local writer also pens a play about her and Rivera called “\u003ca href=\"https://www.si.edu/object/AAADCD_item_766\">The Queen of Montgomery Street\u003c/a>.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This recognition adds to Frida’s growing artist persona and helped plant the seeds for her eventual rise to icon status.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But underneath her colorful garments, Kahlo’s body ached. At 18 she had suffered a horrific street car accident that severely damaged most of her body and exacerbated the chronic pain of her polio leg. Her long walks around San Francisco began to take a toll on her.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>New Friends, New Places and New Ideas\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>That changed when she met \u003ca href=\"https://www.wikiart.org/en/frida-kahlo/portrait-of-dr-leo-eloesser-1931\">Dr. Leo Eloesser\u003c/a>, who would ultimately have a big impact on her life. Eloesser was the chief of thoracic surgery at San Francisco General Hospital and he went above and beyond to treat Kahlo’s foot and leg pain, even showing up at her doorstep when she’d miss her appointments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beyond his thorough care, he connected with Kahlo and Rivera on a creative level.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Leo was a musician. He played viola and he would have weekly soirees at his flat. And so he was a doctor, but you could say he had the soul of an artist,” said Stahr.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The three of them even traveled around Northern California together. One time, Eloesser took Kahlo on her first plane ride. They flew from Oakland to Sacramento to meet up with Rivera who was busy sketching mines and dredgers for his \u003ca href=\"https://www.wikiart.org/en/diego-rivera/allegory-of-california-1931\">“Allegory of California” \u003c/a>mural. One of these excursions proved to be a major turning point for Kahlo’s art.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On a trip to Santa Rosa, Rivera and Kahlo visited the garden of the famous horticulturist Luther Burbank, known as “the wizard of horticulture.” He developed more than 800 varieties of fruits, vegetables and plants by cross breeding two kinds together.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11849000\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11849000 size-large\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/RS46089_castrbhg_pho_1178_01-qut-1020x1424.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"893\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/RS46089_castrbhg_pho_1178_01-qut-1020x1424.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/RS46089_castrbhg_pho_1178_01-qut-800x1117.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/RS46089_castrbhg_pho_1178_01-qut-160x223.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/RS46089_castrbhg_pho_1178_01-qut-1100x1536.jpg 1100w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/RS46089_castrbhg_pho_1178_01-qut-1467x2048.jpg 1467w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/RS46089_castrbhg_pho_1178_01-qut-scaled.jpg 1833w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo at the garden of Luther Burbank in Santa Rosa \u003ccite>(Luther Burbank Home & Gardens Collection--Sonoma County Library Digital Collections)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Seeing how Burbank literally fused together two organisms to create something brand new mesmerized Kahlo.

It’s a duality that was already part of her Mexican upbringing, says Stahr, but a visual style that was honed here in the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Rivera completed his two murals in 1931, the couple briefly went back to Mexico before returning to the U.S. to paint in New York City and Detroit.

As she and Rivera make their way to San Francisco in 1930, she doodles a portrait of herself set against a backdrop of how she imagined the city to be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When they get to San Francisco, she shows it to Diego and he just marvels at how much it looks like what they’re seeing before them, kind of like she already knew what it was going to look like even though she’d never been [here],” says Stahr. “So there’s a sense of destiny that she was supposed to come here.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003caside class=\"alignleft utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__bayCuriousPodcastShortcode__bayCurious\">\u003cimg src=https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/bayCuriousLogo.png alt=\"Bay Curious Podcast\" loading=\"lazy\" />\n \u003ca href=\"/news/series/baycurious\">Bay Curious\u003c/a> is a podcast that answers your questions about the Bay Area.\n Subscribe on \u003ca href=\"https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/bay-curious/id1172473406\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Apple Podcasts\u003c/a>,\n \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/podcasts/500557090/bay-curious\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NPR One\u003c/a> or your favorite podcast platform.\u003c/aside>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite the fact that it was the Great Depression and paid work opportunities for American artists were scarce, Rivera landed two prestigious mural commissions: one at the \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfai.edu/about-sfai/diego-rivera-mural\">San Francisco Art Institute\u003c/a> and another at the Pacific Stock Exchange building, now called the City Club of San Francisco. His patrons hoped that Rivera’s fame would bring prestige to the local art scene and help jump-start a mural movement in the bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Rivera was a controversial pick for the Stock Exchange. As a member of the Mexican Communist Party, Rivera imbued his politics in his large-scale public murals. Many San Francisco artists were outraged that an outspoken communist would paint in the city’s “citadel of capitalism” and took to the newspaper to express their opposition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11848996\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 383px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11848996 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/AAK-0313.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"383\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/AAK-0313.jpg 383w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/11/AAK-0313-160x167.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 383px) 100vw, 383px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Rivera at work on the ‘Allegory of California’ mural at the Pacific Stock Exchange. \u003ccite>(San Francisco History Center, San Francisco Public Library)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“I believe he is the greatest living artist in the world and we would do well to have an example of his work in a public building in San Francisco.

The Greek colony is also very interesting and the Japanese, but most of all the Chinese,” Frida wrote in a letter to her mother.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She just gushes about Chinatown and she writes about it quite a bit. It reminded her very much, she said, of home. She writes about how she’s convinced that the Mexican people and the Chinese people are connected to one another,” says Stahr.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Letters detail how the firecrackers during Chinese New Year festivities reminded Kahlo of street fairs back in Mexico. Silks and other handmade fabrics sold in the shops of Chinatown also caught her eye. She purchased a few to embellish her red leather boots and make into Mexican-style skirts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kahlo’s style definitely caught the attention of San Franciscans.

Since Kahlo was the daughter of a photographer, she was a natural in front of the camera. A local writer also pens a play about her and Rivera called “\u003ca href=\"https://www.si.edu/object/AAADCD_item_766\">The Queen of Montgomery Street\u003c/a>.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This recognition adds to Frida’s growing artist persona and helped plant the seeds for her eventual rise to icon status.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But underneath her colorful garments, Kahlo’s body ached. At 18 she had suffered a horrific street car accident that severely damaged most of her body and exacerbated the chronic pain of her polio leg.

Eloesser was the chief of thoracic surgery at San Francisco General Hospital and he went above and beyond to treat Kahlo’s foot and leg pain, even showing up at her doorstep when she’d miss her appointments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beyond his thorough care, he connected with Kahlo and Rivera on a creative level.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Leo was a musician. He played viola and he would have weekly soirees at his flat. And so he was a doctor, but you could say he had the soul of an artist,” said Stahr.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The three of them even traveled around Northern California together. One time, Eloesser took Kahlo on her first plane ride.

Roughly 80 million voters have already cast their ballots by mail as coronavirus cases spike throughout much of the U.S., including Wisconsin, Iowa and other electoral battlegrounds. Hundreds of lawsuits have been filed to challenge changes spurred by the public health crisis to how Americans are voting this year. This week, the Supreme Court gave conflicting decisions on accepting mail-in ballots that arrive after Nov. 3 in the swing states of Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and North Carolina. Meanwhile, in California, a poll released this week by UC Berkeley’s Institute of Governmental Studies surveyed opinions on the dozen statewide ballot measures, including Proposition 16, which would lift a ban on affirmative action, and Proposition 21, an effort to expand rent control in the state. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Scott Shafer, KQED politics and government senior editor \u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Marisa Lagos, KQED politics and government correspondent \u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>‘Lost in a Gallup’\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">We hear from W.

The President claimed Biden had little to show for his decades in public office, while Biden castigated the president for his response to the pandemic amid a surge in cases nationwide. Also on Thursday, Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee voted to advance the nomination of Supreme Court Justice nominee Amy Coney Barrett without a single Democratic lawmaker on the committee in attendance in a symbolic show of opposition to her nomination. Meanwhile, in California, a poll released this week from the Public Policy Institute of California surveyed likely voters about the Barrett nomination and their views on Proposition 15, which would raise taxes on commercial properties, and Proposition 16 which would reverse a ban on the use of affirmative action in the public sector, allowing state-funded universities, for example, to consider race, gender and ethnicity in admission decisions. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Marisa Lagos, KQED politics and government correspondent \u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Guy Marzorati, KQED politics and government reporter\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>College Students and Mental Health\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Surveys of thousands of college students in the U.S. since the start of the pandemic reveal high rates of stress, anxiety, feelings of loneliness and other mental health struggles. A survey of graduate and undergraduate students conducted between May and July across nine public universities, for example, found the prevalence of depression to be twice as high this year compared to last year. But for a generation immersed in apps, social media and smartphones, technology may provide digital signposts to guide young people out of isolation and loneliness. Hopelab, a nonprofit based in San Francisco, has developed Nod, an app featuring prompts, exercises and testimonials that has helped first-year students at risk for depression and loneliness, according to a 2019 study conducted at the University of Oregon. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Danielle Ramo, senior director of research, Hopelab\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Will Coleman, intern, Hopelab and senior, Columbia College\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Something Beautiful: SkyStar in the Park\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">We end our show this week by taking an elevated look at a 150-foot-tall ferris wheel that finally started spinning in Golden Gate Park this week, seven months after its arrival to commemorate the 150-year anniversary of the park.
