Mexico’s Great Artists Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera Featured on Exhibition Tour

The “Diego y Frida” exhibition is on a tour across Belize. Last September, the exhibition opened at the Mexican Institute in Belize City and now it is in San Ignacio at the House of Culture. The photographs showcase the personal lives of two celebrated Mexican artists, muralist Diego Rivera and painter Frida Kahlo. Diego Sapien of the Mexican Embassy tells us more about the exhibition.

“The exhibition is comprised of 86 photographs that share the lives of Diego Rivera and Frida Khalo. Diego Rivera and Frida Khalo is one of the most famous couple in Mexican art. We are showing a little bit of their personal side, their love relationship, their encounters and mis-encounters – they have a few. So, you can also see in the photographs some of the intimate relationships they had with Mexican artists, international personalities and in general, their way of life.”

 

You have until the end of May to see the exhibition in San Ignacio.
