This major exhibition contains more than 40 iconic Frida Kahlo paintings borrowed from over 30 private and museum collections around the globe, some of which have never before been publicly displayed. The works are complemented by over 100 photographs of herself, family and friends from Kahlo's personal collection. On the whole, it's a fitting tribute to the artist who bared her soul, poured her visual heart out and allowed us all to feel that we know her.
Frida Kahlo was organized by the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis (where it was on view October 27, 2007-January 20, 2008) and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (June 14-September 16, 2008). We caught up with it during its visit to the Philadelphia Museum of Art (February 20-May 18, 2008), and here share images of some of Frida Kahlo's best-known works.
