The space of the cabinet addresses readings on works of the museum’s collection, punctual reviews on specific periods in the history of art in our country and creative processes documented from primary sources. As the result of a documentary research made by the curatorial team of Modern Art Museum, we offer a reflective approach to the painting: The Two Fridas, at 80 years of its creation.

The Two Fridas, a fundamental work of the modern national art, stands out because it is a painting in a large format. It is a poetical retelling of the breakup of Frida Kahlo with Diego Rivera on 1939, and at the same time the expression of her creative maturity.

The documents and photographs that we present here guide us across Frida Kahlo’s trip in the French capital, with an emphasis on the collaboration she received from Duchamp to display her work in Paris. From her trip to Europe, we will review the creative phases that gave birth to The Two Fridas: a double self-portrait that unfolds the Frida loved by Diego and the one he abandoned.
