Frida Kahlo produced less than 150 paintings in her lifetime, and many rarely leave the Americas. The Fondation Beyeler, outside Basel, has assembled approximately 50 of these paintings along with 15 drawings, all dating from the 1920s to the 1950s. Kahlo was an obsessive self-portraitist, once explaining, “I paint myself because I am so often alone and because I am the subject I know best.” Her self-portraits are at the heart of this exhibition—the first on Kahlo in Switzerland—alongside still lifes and portraits of family and friends. —Elena Clavarino
