When the Mexican photographer Graciela Iturbide confronts the universe of Frida in a series made “in the absence”, with the bathroom room of the Azul house, exceptionally reopened by Diego Rivera in 2005, in which personal objects of the Argerist’s presence and his memory of the Daily of the December, the daily of the Daily of the December of the Daily of the Daily of the Daily, of the Daily of the Daily of the Daily, December catching. Nickolas Muray, the photographer who was most closely connected to Frida, who was also his loved one, is immortal, but also his vitality and his first statements as an artist, while Leo Matz records the visual indictment of the personality protagonist of lively shots.

The exhibition is far from a simple biographical path for images, the exhibition will deepen the dialogue between Kahlo and his photographic representation and wonder what this visual story has been led, influenced or even built by the artist himself.
Frida was depicted in countless photos from a young age, when Father Guillermo Kahlo – a professional photographer – chose her as a privileged subject.
