Frida & Diego: Passion, Politics, and Painting
Atlanta
Atlanta Metro
Few artists have captured the public's imagination like Mexican painter Frida Kahlo (1907–1954) and her husband, the Mexican painter and muralist Diego Rivera (1886–1957). The myths that surrounded them during their lifetime arose not only from their significant body of work, but also from their active participation in the historical happenings around them.
"Frida & Diego: Passion, Politics, and Painting" positions the artists' work within the political and artistic contexts of their time. Their art speaks of a fierce loyalty to and pride in Mexico, the ideals of the 1910 Mexican Revolution and their commitment to the conditions of the common man.
The exhibition features more than 120 works and is the first completely bilingual exhibition to be presented at the High, with Spanish and English versions of wall labels and audio tours, as well as bilingual tour guides on Sundays throughout the show. The High Museum of Art will be the only U.S. venue for this exhibition.
