"Even if you treat it as just a showcase of Roman sculpture, 'Myth and Marble' would deserve all its laurel wreaths. But it’s about more than antiquity. It’s also about the recent past, about a special collection with a curious history, which almost no one saw for 75 years.” Read more about our recently opened exhibition, "Myth and Marble: Ancient Roman Sculpture from the Torlonia Collection," in The New York Times.

The Art Institute of Chicago is pleased to announce "Frida Kahlo’s Month in Paris: A Friendship with Mary Reynolds," on view from March 29–July 13, 2025. This is the first exhibition of Frida Kahlo’s work organized by the Art Institute of Chicago. It focuses on a pivotal period in 1939: Kahlo's residence at the Paris home of Mary Reynolds, an American avant-garde bookbinder whose home was a hub for the city’s artistic community. The tightly focused exhibition includes extraordinary loans from public and private collections across the United States, Mexico, and Europe and draws on the Art Institute’s extensive Mary Reynolds Collection. It features 100 objects, including seven of Kahlo’s most important self-portraits, letters written by Kahlo recounting her time in Paris, book bindings, works on paper, photographs, and more. “We are thrilled to be exhibiting Kahlo’s work for the first time at the Art Institute and to shed light on this specific and fascinating chapter of Kahlo’s early career when her life intersected with our museum’s history and holdings,” said Caitlin Haskell, Gary C. and Frances Comer Senior Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art.
