Answer and Explanation:

Frida Kahlo is still being celebrated today because both her history and her works make people feel represented. Frida presents a history of strength and resilience, which is a very important point for her fame. In addition, her works have a strong representation of the female figure and exalts Latin and indigenous elements, which allows many people to identify with everything that she presents and to associate her work with causes defended by minorities. In addition, feminine, indigenous and Latin elements were often overlooked within the artistic field, which promotes a richness and a differential to Frida's work.
