In Singapore's vibrant art scene, we've been treated to a series of exhibitions that allowed us to step into the worlds of artistic giants, from the wildly successful Van Gogh show to the upcoming Claude Monet showcase. Now, stepping into the limelight alongside these luminaries is none other than the influential Mexican painter, Frida Kahlo. Brace yourselves for Frida Kahlo: The Life of an Icon, an exhibition that will be brought to us by the ArtScience Museum this May, promising to transport us into her singular universe.
Frida Kahlo is an influential Mexican artist known for her emotionally charged self-portraits, exploring themes of identity, pain, and feminism. Her unique style combines surrealism with traditional Mexican folk art. Kahlo's life was marked by physical and emotional struggles, which often informed her work. Till today, she remains a symbol of resilience and artistic expression worldwide.
Frida Kahlo: The Life of an Icon prides itself on being an immersive one like no other, featuring three different segments with nine spaces filled with 360-degree projections, interactive installations, photographs, and films. You’ll be able to trace her artistic journey, starting from her early years as a young girl. The show will also touch on her medical journey – one that isn’t widely discussed about. There’ll also be virtual reality experiences for you to truly step into her shoes and see the world from her point of view.
Ticket prices start at $25. They have not been released yet, but you’ll be able to join the waitlist here to get first dibs.
