If I'm not mistaken, in "doRotate" you should be able to refer to the
to-be-closed dialog via

self.frameRotate

Now if you change the "sliderUpdate"-code to store that angle instead of
just letting it fall out of scope, you could access that value through
frameRotate:

def sliderUpdate(self, event):
        angle=self.slider.GetValue()
        ROTATION_ANGLE=angle
        self.angle = angle 
        self.Destroy()



def doRotate(self,event):
    """Rotating image"""
    print self.frameRotate.angle
