Join us for a virtual tour of Frida Kahlo: POSE, now on view at the Rose Art Museum. POSE co-curators Dr. Gannit Ankori, Henry and Lois Foster Director and Chief Curator of the Rose and Circe Henestrosa, Mexican Fashion Scholar and Curator, will lead you through the exhibition and discuss the profound and generative interplay between photography, fashion, art, and the construction of identity, emphasizing Kahlo's articulation of gender, disability, and ethnicity.
A short Q+A will follow. Participants are invited to share their questions in advance.
Caption services will be provided for this program. Is there anything that would make your participation easier? We are committed to making our virtual programs accessible to all; please email inquiries and requests to Elizabeth Moy, Programs Coordinator.
