During our walk through Brussels, we visit the Horta Gallery (covered passageway), where we see the exhibition “Frida Kahlo – The Life Of an Icon”. We enjoy original films, video projections and digital installations on the walls, ceiling and floor. It smells a bit commercial, especially the ticket price, but in the end it was an interesting experience.

During this time, they lived together with 24-hour supervision. Kahlo affectionately referred to him as ‘Piochitas’ (little goatee) and he kept love letters from her hidden in books.Frida Kahlo in the gardenFrida Kahlo in Tehuana Costume, 1940All media used
