Tickets to The Frida Kahlo Museum
Give us the opportunity to immerse you in the Frida Kahlo’s world
The Casa Azul speaks of the loves of Frida and Diego, and of their admiration for Mexican culture and art. In the “Artist’s Bedroom,” you’ll find her four-poster bed with the mirror that her mother had installed after the accident. There, immobile for nine months, Frida began to paint. In the “Studio” you’ll find the easel that Nelson Rockefeller gave her. The crutches, corsets, and medicines attest to the surgeries and physical ailments she suffered. The ex-votos, toys, clothing, and jewelry speak of Frida as a collector and lover of beauty. The “Kitchen”—typical of traditional Mexican homes—reflects everyday life in the house.
Visit: Museo Frida Kahlo, Calle Londres 247 Col. Del Carmen, Mexico City 04100 Mexico
The Casa Azul (Blue House) is Frida Kahlo’s private universe. She spent most of her life here, first with her family and, years later, at Diego Rivera’s side. They hosted a fascinating array of luminaries from Mexico and abroad, drawn by the charisma of both artists.
Frida and Diego wanted to leave her house as a museum for all Mexicans to enjoy. At her death, the couple’s friend, museographer and poet Carlos Pellicer did the exhibition design. Its administration was assigned to a trust, the Fideicomiso de los Museos Diego Rivera y Frida Kahlo, under the central bank, Banco de México, and constituted by Rivera himself in 1957.
Duration: 1 hour
Visit: Museo Diego Rivera Anahuacalli, Calle Museo 150, Mexico City 04620 Mexico
Throughout his life, Diego Rivera assembled an impressive collection of pre-Hispanic pieces. He wanted the building housing them to also be an inhabitable artwork.
In 1941 Diego began the Anahuacalli, a construction blending modern art and the Pre-Columbian aesthetic. To built it, Rivera acquired land in the lava field created by the Xitle volcano. Planning to bequeath it to the Mexican people, he imagined the Anahuacalli as a unique architectural work: a City of the Arts in continuous creation. Today, the Museum houses more than 45,000 pieces, 2,000 on permanent display.
Duration: 2 hours
