Artists have long used the self-portrait as a way to articulate their personal and collective identities. Dr. Lori Parks (Department of Humanities and Creative Arts), will examine the ways in which Frida Kahlo explores and expresses her physical and psychological life experiences as well as her interest in her own mixed Mexican-German heritage.
