In this “The Week in Art” podcast from The Art Newspaper, curator Letizia Treves tours the temporarily-shuttered “Artemisia” exhibition at London’s National Gallery, and author Hettie Judah guides us through her new Kahlo biography, offering illuminating insights into the life of the enigmatic Mexican painter. —E.C.
