The exhibition is within the framework of “Art in the Metro” project, which is organized by Karen Demirchyan Yerevan Metro and with the support of the Honorary Consulate of Mexico to the Republic of Armenia. Frida Kahlo (1907-1954) was a Mexican painter known for her many portraits, self-portraits, and works inspired by the nature and artifacts of Mexico.
