Telfair Museums – Jepson Museum Exhibit
I love being a member of the Telfair Museums. This past June Neal and I attended a Director’s Circle Art Spotlight Lecture on Fashioning Frida by New York City Based Fashion Historian Raissa Bretana.
The next day after the lecture, we returned to see the famed portraits of Frida on display for ourselves. Funny, we were told they were somewhere in the building. Searching in every exhibit room, we found no Frida. I finally walked down to the admissions desk to inquire of the whereabouts of this famous icon.
Well to my surprise the portraits were in an unlit, not advertised hallway leading to the conference room.
Ah, there she was! Waiting, frozen in time… Frida.

A truly beautiful exhibit.
I have always been a Frida fan. I went to her house/museum in Mexico and I left depressed. What a life she had, especially with Diego Rivera. I’m glad you finally found her in the hallway.
Don, that is incredible! Neal and I actually learned of her tragic life under her husband, her terrible bus accident and body prosthetics that she hid under clothing.
The lecture was very informative and Telfair had special art works in their offices at the top of the stairs including famous hand earrings
