“A new show featuring paintings and photography by Frida Kahlo at the Philadelphia Museum of Art has Philadelphia art buffs and Latin American art enthusiasts in a frenzy.

The exhibition, which draws on collections from places such as Mexico and Japan, contains 45 paintings and more than 100 of Kahlo’s personal photographs. It opens today and runs through May 18.

Many of the paintings have never been displayed in the United States, and the exhibit is the first major presentation of Kahlo’s work in the country in 15 years.”*
