A grandiose exhibition dedicated to the Mexican artist at the Palais Galliera
Last May in Paris, a charming photo exhibition paid tribute to the Mexican icon at the Galerie de l’Instant with “An artist’s gaze, Frida Kahlo by Lucienne Bloch”. But what does the Palais Galliera have in store for us in 2022 with “ Frida Kahlo, beyond appearances »? For the first time in France, 200 objects borrowed from the famous Casa Azul will be given to see in the heart of the sumptuous Palais Galliera.
Visitors will discover in particular pre-Hispanic gold and silver jewelry but also exceptional correspondence. Also, ethnic dresses that inspired the masters of haute couture (like Jean-Paul Gaultier or Cristian Lacroix) will be given to see. At Paris Secret, we also find ourselves dreaming of multicolored braids and ribbons, spectacular shawls and skirts, and we are already guessing a colorful exhibition. At the Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris, discover Frida Kahlo like you’ve never seen her before, and immerse yourself in the intimacy of the woman artist with talent and personality like no other.
