JORDAO, Guilherme Pimentel    D'ALESSANDRO, Carla. The partner-symptom and the conception of the artist: chronicle of Frida Kahlo's birth. []. , 53, 1, pp.6-29. ISSN 0101-4838.

The Other, as representative of feminine jouissance, unattainable and not-whole, demands an appeal to the phallic jouissance as a way to know itself, even when one is placed at the feminine side of sexuation. Frida Kahlo, subject whose view in the field of art is the object of analysis at this article, seems to demonstrate those facts through her pictures. Her formula consists, to a certain extent, in trying to reach with support of the loving partner a speech about her being of jouissance. In Diego and Frida partnership, painting appears to say enough to the masochist privation jouissance, sending the artist back to the perspective of love for father, père-version that enlace in a symptomatic way, in her work, love, femininity and trauma.
