Frida Kahlo exhibition opens in Milan

The exhibition ‘Through My Eyes: Frida Kahlo and the Construction of the Myth’ has opened at MYOWNGALLERY - Superstudio Più in Milan. Curated by Vittoria Mainoldi, the showcase features 75 photographs by 11 international photographers.

Mainoldi notes that while Kahlo has become a ubiquitous commercial icon in recent decades, the exhibition aims to restore depth to her legacy. The collection explores her relationship with photography, noting that although she was primarily a painter known for self-portraits, she possessed a keen awareness of the medium's power. The exhibition is a reflection on identity, self-representation, and the evolution of her public image. It will remain open until January 11, 2027.
