Fresno Art Museum in Fresno, CA
22 January 2016 – 1 May 2016
Approximately 50 photographic portraits taken of Frida Kahlo comprise the exhibition Frida Kahlo: Through the Lens of Nickolas Muray. The photographs, dating from 1937 to 1946, explore Muray’s unique perspective; in the 1930s and 1940s, he was Frida Kahlo’s friend, lover, and confidant. Muray’s photographs bring to light Kahlo’s deep interest in her Mexican heritage, her life, and the people significant to her with whom she shared a close friendship.
