“This room is a dizzying kaleidoscope of symbols from Kahlo’s art. Watermelons and flowers, hummingbirds and monkeys, skulls and foliage carpet the room in a 360-degree projection, reacting to visitors as they move through the space. Fans of Japanese art collective teamlab’s interactive works will enjoy this imminently Instagrammable” installation.

“Here’s why this exhibition is an absolute must-see – the overarching showing consists of not just one, but three captivating segments: Frida Kahlo: The Life of an Icon, Bare: Frida's Inner World, as well as an immersive VR experience at the end to top it all off. The show will also feature works that have not been shown outside of the United States before.”
