Mexico City's Palacio de Bellas Artes museum is hosting a 2-month exhibition of artist Frida Kahlo's work, marking 100 years since her birth. Kahlo (1907-1954) was born in Mexico City and has been recognized as an intellectual and social activist. As a painter, she depicted Mexico's indigenous culture in a style combining realism, symbolism, and surrealism. The Bellas Artes exhibition, the largest ever of her work, runs through August 19th.
