In May 1931 the eminent photographer Nickolas Muray traveled to Mexico on vacation where he met Frida Kahlo, a woman he would never forget. The two started a romance that continued on and off for the next ten years and a friendship that lasted until her death in 1954. Approximately forty photographic portraits taken by Muray of Kahlo comprise the exhibition. The photographs, dating from 1937 to 1946, explore Muray’s unique perspective; as 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 with whom she shared a close friendship.

Frida Kahlo: Through the Lens of Nickolas Muray is made possible through support from the Choptank Foundation, Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield Delaware and The Bryn Mawr Trust Company of Delaware.  Additionally, these exhibitions and related programming are supported by the Delaware Division of the Arts, a state agency, in partnership with the National Endowment for the Arts.  The Delaware Division of the Arts promotes Delaware arts events on www.DelawareScene.com.
