The artist Frida Kahlo
A UNIVERSAL ICON...
Frida Kahlo. The experience It offers us a journey through the life of one of the best known –and beloved– artists in the world.
“The exhibition presents the life of Frida Kahlo, characterized by a difficult physical condition and, at the same time, for a great capacity for reaction and resistance in the face of adversity”, they explain from the organization.
If we had to describe it in a few words, we could talk about Magdalena Carmen Frida Kahlo Calderon –better known Frida Kahlo– as a universal icon , because the artist managed to create her own style in which her personal circumstances live with the nature elements without ever losing the identity of her country.
Frida was able to transform her immobility into opportunity and her suffering into an energy that made her immortal. And it is precisely that energy, that passion, that we will be able to experience in this moving exhibition that invites us to "Meeting a unique woman, living her and understanding her essence: her strength, her courage, her talent and her immense love."
"Out of sight, out of mind".
...AND AN EMOTIONAL JOURNEY

It is very inspiring to appreciate the different stages of her life, revealing information about her personal care, the intimacy of friendly encounters, masterfully captured by famous photographers, as well as iconic moments in the history of Mexico and the world” , it states Alexandra Lopez , curator of the exhibition.
