On the occasion of the 40th edition of the historic Mille Miglia, E.A. Kahane held a photo exhibition at the Museo Mille Miglia in Brescia, Italy in 2022. In it's second iteration, FRONT ROW SEAT, took a new form as the large-scale photographs were installed in the courtyard of the museum. One might even say it was a homecoming of sorts, since the race initiates in Brescia. E.A. Kahane took the photographs in 2021 when her son and husband participated in the race. In 2022 she returned to participate with a group of five other women and to install this rigorous exhibition. FRONT ROW SEAT, received an incredible amount of media attention in Italy, from print to television. Please visit the press section for more details.

In its first iteration, Front Row Seat, a photograph exhibition by E.A. Kahane, was shown at Sarah Langley Gallery @ Hammetts Hotel in Newport, Rhode Island. The exhibition was co-curated by Jessica Hagen Fine Art and featured a selection of photographs taken Summer 2021 in various locations around Italy during the infamous Mille Miglia Race. Kahane had access to the race behind-the-scenes, and was front and center as the cars rolled in to ancient cities around the country. Her husband and son drove a 1952 FIAT 8V-seen above in the header-and also represented the Audrain Motor Sport and Audrain Museum, in Newport. The exhibition is on view through October 31, 2021.
Kahane's exhibition, Front Row Seat, offered a look into the Mille Miglia Race that occurred in Italy, summer 2021. Kahane, and her family own several classic cars, and while her husband and son raced, she spent time taking photographs of other participants, vehicles, and spectators who came out to watch the cars drive by in the multi-city race. From her Front Row Seat, Kahane was able to take intimate photographs and the exhibition is a rare treat for fans of the race and those who are just discovering it, to enjoy the ride!For inquiries please contact Susan Langley Gallery, Newport Curates.
