Visitors to Buenos Aires will have the chance to marvel at the most expensive work by a Latin American artist ever to sell at auction - a self-portrait by Frida Kahlo (1907-1954).

The Mexican artist's work Diego y yo (Diego And I) is the centrepiece of the new Tercer ojo (Third Eye) exhibit at the Museo de Arte Latinoamericano de Buenos Aires - also known as the Malba - which opened recently.
