Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo Exhibition at El Palacio de Hierro

An exhibition titled 'Diego y Frida regresan a El Palacio' opens at El Palacio de Hierro Polanco, presenting an intimate look at the lives of Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo through photography, objects, furniture, documents, and urban memories. The show explores their daily life, home, and the material culture that shaped their legacy, organized into sections such as 'Dos vidas, dos miradas' (visual biography), 'Habitar el mito' (home as creative space), 'La obra, la vida' (art and personal experience), and 'Del sur al centro' (urban displacement between San Ángel and Mexico City's historic center). It highlights the role of El Palacio de Hierro as a modern urban node, featuring sections on what was sold there and objects for shared life. Studio Evolución, led by Gastón Chausat, is noted for its functionalist furniture that influenced Rivera and Kahlo's domestic aesthetic. The exhibition proposes a reading where art, design, and city intertwine in everyday gestures.
