February 4, 2022—World of Frida and Frida Kahlo in Context at Hudson River Museum

Hudson River Museum Presents Bilingual Exhibitions that Celebrate Culture, Style, and Persona of Frida Kahlo

Hudson River Museum is proud to present two companion exhibitions—The World of Frida and Frida Kahlo in Context—that celebrate the culture, style, and persona of visionary Mexican painter Frida Kahlo (1907–1954), who continues to inspire with her story of love, loss, and incredible bravery. The exhibitions will be presented in both English and Spanish and will be on view from February 4–May 22, 2022.

The World of Frida / El Mundo de Frida—Featuring works of art by more than seventy five national and international artists practicing in a variety of media, the exhibition includes Frida Kahlo as subject as well as pieces inspired by her life and art, her beautiful garden, Mexican culture and fashion, vibrant colors, and surrealism. In the companion exhibition, Frida Kahlo in Context / Frida Kahlo en contexto, iconic photographs and artworks explore Kahlo as a multidimensional Latinx artist, including a key painting by Diego Rivera on loan from Art Bridges. The works are juxtaposed with vibrant costumes of Oaxaca from the Ballet Folklorico Mexicano de Nueva York.
