This August, the DMA presents
Frida: Beyond the Myth.
Composed of over 60 works across media—paintings, drawings, prints, and photographs—the exhibition
will explore the life of one of the 20th century’s most well-documented artists, who continues to elude our understanding of her as an individual.  

Taking a chronological approach, this exhibition will lift the veil of myth surrounding Kahlo by delving deeper into the defining moments of her life and how she embedded symbolic motifs in her self-portraits and still lifes to cryptically express her emotive reactions to major events. These works will be supplemented with photographs of Kahlo by the friends and fellow artists who knew her best, capturing the vulnerability and sensuality that still compel us today.
