06/10/2015 Opening Reception for Frida Kahlo: Through the Lens of Nickolas Muray Downtown Free


City of Toronto All Events http://ift.tt/1HFC5bP Frida Kahlo: Through the Lens of Nickolas Muray comprises 50 photographic portraits of renowned Mexican artist Frida Kahlo taken by Hungarian-born photographer Nickolas Muray between 1937 and 1941, capturing the exceptional breadth of Kahlo's persona from the photographer's unique perspective as her friend and intimate confidant. The exhibition includes pioneering colour images whose lush, saturated colours highlight the elaborate wardrobe that was an intrinsic part of Kahlo's identity during the 1930s and 40s, when political idealism and national fervor were at their height among her circle of urban intellectuals.
