View this post on Instagram In recent years, #FridaKahlo’s image has inspired a Barbie, a nail-polish line and a Snapchat filter. But a new exhibit at the @brooklynmuseum aims to draw attention away from superficial signifiers and offer a deeper understanding of the Mexican painter, whose self-portraits and Surrealist imagery made her one of the most influential #artists of the 20th century. “Frida Kahlo: Appearances Can Be Deceiving,” on display through May 12, features a collection of her possessions that shed light on her politics, embrace of indigenous Mexican culture and resilience in the face of debilitating ailments. Kahlo was fascinated by #NewYork, where she had her first solo show and where she is seen here in 1946. But she was also open about her disgust with the U.S.’s capitalist-driven inequality. “I feel a bit of rage against all these rich guys here, since I have seen thousands of people in the most terrible misery without anything to eat and with no place to sleep,” she wrote in a 1931 letter. In this photo she wears a huipil—a Mexican tunic that reinforces her commitment to the country’s indigenous culture.
