Art: Frida Kahlo & Day of the Dead Imagery @ the Tate

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


I went to the new Frida Kahlo exhibition at London’s Tate Modern yesterday and loved it, both as someone who enjoys art and who is interested in folklore and mythology. Day of the Dead imagery is one aspect of Mexican culture that appears both in Frida’s paintings and in other artist’s work that she inspired. 

The photo at the top shows Altar for Frida Kahlo by Carmen Lomas Garza with other paintings in a room displaying creations in homage. The picture to the right shows one by Frida herself called Girl with Death Mask.

Here’s more general information about the exhibition from the Tate website:

“Frida: The Making of an Icon… showcase[s] over 30 of Kahlo’s most iconic works that introduce her ‘many selves’ – the dedicated wife, the intellectual, the modern artist, and the political activist. Alongside treasured garments, jewellery, photographs and memorabilia, there are over 200 works by her contemporaries and the artists she inspired from later generations, celebrating her lasting impact on those who continue to reimagine and reclaim her remarkable story.”

Frida: The Making of an Icon  is on at the Tate Modern, Bankside, London SE1 9TG until 3 January 2027. Tickets are £25 or free for nembers. You can find out more here: https://www.tate.org.uk/
