"If the Istituto exhibition were an opera, Callas probably would be pleased with the staging. Her costumes have been posed in an eye-catching and realistic manner. Her 1956 La Scala Il Barbiere di Siviglia dress is a vibrant shade of marigold with contrasting black netting and pompoms. White lace drapes from the elbows, which one can imagine enhanced her every gesture."
Julie Neigher in the Los Angeles Times reviews "Maria Callas: A Woman, a Voice, a Myth" at Istituto Italiano di Cultura in Westwood.
