MoMA ANNOUNCES A FOCUSED EXHIBITION PRESENTING CELEBRATED WORKS BY FRIDA KAHLO AND DIEGO RIVERA

Exhibition Features a Bespoke Gallery Design Inspired by the Metropolitan Opera’s New Production of El Último Sueño de Frida y Diego

NEW YORK, December 17, 2025 — The Museum of Modern Art announces Frida and Diego: The Last Dream, an exhibition of key works from MoMA’s collection by Frida Kahlo (1907–1954) and Diego Rivera (1886–1957), on view from March 29 through September 12, 2026. The exhibition is presented in conjunction with the Metropolitan Opera’s premiere of El Último Sueño de Frida y Diego (May 14–June 5, 2026). The opera, by Grammy Award–winning composer Gabriela Lena Frank and Pulitzer Prize–winning playwright Nilo Cruz, is a mythical exploration of Frida and Diego’s profound relationship with their art and each other. For the exhibition, MoMA has invited Jon Bausor, the stage set and co-costume designer of the opera, to create an innovative setting for the artworks inspired by his designs for the opera and the works of Kahlo and Rivera. The installation will showcase five paintings and a drawing by Kahlo and over a dozen works by Rivera. Photographic portraits of the artists by luminaries such as Lola Álvarez Bravo and Leo Matiz will also be on view.

Frida and Diego: The Last Dream is organized by Beverly Adams, The Estrellita Brodsky Curator of Latin American Art, in collaboration with Jon Bausor, independent Stage Designer and Creative Director, with Caitlin Chaisson, Curatorial Assistant, Department of Painting and Sculpture, and Rachel Remick, Curatorial Assistant, Department of Painting and Sculpture and Curatorial Affairs. Realized with the participation of the Metropolitan Opera, New York.

For MoMA’s presentation, Bausor’s gallery design draws visitors into the otherworldly setting of the production, offering a fresh context for Kahlo and Rivera’s celebrated works. El Último Sueño de Frida y Diego, which is directed by Deborah Colker and will premiere at the Metropolitan Opera on May 14, 2026, is set during the Day of the Dead, a Mexican holiday honoring loved ones and ancestors who have passed away. The opera follows an aging Rivera as he summons Kahlo back to life and the two revisit their creative partnership.

While Kahlo and Rivera are among the most influential artists of the 20th century, Frida and Diego: The Last Dream holds special significance for MoMA, as each artist had a unique connection to the Museum during their lifetime. Their works, such as Self-Portrait withCropped Hair (1940) and Fulang-Chang and I (1937) by Kahlo and Flower Festival: Feast of Santa Anita (1931) and Agrarian Leader Zapata (1931) by Rivera, have long been fixtures in the Museum’s collection galleries. Building on this legacy, this exhibition takes an interdisciplinary approach, presenting their art in dialogue with the opera. Public programs, produced in collaboration with the Metropolitan Opera, will accompany the presentation.

Together, the exhibition and programming will shed new light on how Kahlo and Rivera’s groundbreaking art continues to inspire artists across disciplines to this day.

MoMA ANUNCIA UNA EXPOSICIÓN CENTRADA EN OBRAS CÉLEBRES DE FRIDA KAHLO Y DIEGO RIVERA

La exhibición presenta un diseño de galerías inspirado en la nueva producción de la Ópera Metropolitana, El Último Sueño de Frida y Diego

NUEVA YORK, 17 de decembre, 2025 — The Museum of Modern Art anuncia Frida and Diego: The Last Dream, una exposición de obras clave de Frida Kahlo (1907–1954) y Diego Rivera (1886–1957) en la colección del MoMA, junto a una pequeña selección de importantes obras en préstamo. La exhibición, que tendrá lugar del 29 de marzo al 12 de septiembre del 2026, es presentada en conjunto con el estreno de El Último Sueño de Frida y Diego (14 de mayo–5 de junio, 2026) en la Ópera Metropolitana. La ópera de la compositora ganadora del Grammy, Gabriela Lena Frank, y el dramaturgo ganador del Premio Pulitzer, Nilo Cruz, es una exploración mítica de la profunda relación de los artistas con su arte y entre ellos. Para la exposición, MoMA invitó a Jon Bausor, escenografía y codiseñador de vestuario de la ópera, a crear un ambiente teatral para las obras inspirado tanto en sus diseños para la ópera como en las obras de Kahlo y Rivera. La instalación presentará cinco pinturas y un dibujo de Kahlo y más de una docena de obras de Rivera.

Retratos fotográficos de los artistas por luminarias como Lola Álvarez Bravo y Leo Matiz también estarán exhibidos. Frida and Diego: The Last Dream está organizada por Beverly Adams, Estrellita Brodsky Curator of Latin American Art, en colaboración con Jon Bausor, diseñador de escenografía y director creativo independiente, junto con Caitlin Chaisson, asistente curatorial, Departamento de pintura y escultura, y Rachel Remick, asistente curatorial, Departamento de pintura y escultura y asuntos curatoriales. Producida con la participación de la Ópera Metropolitana de Nueva York.

En la muestra en MoMA, el diseño de exposición de Bausor transporta a los visitantes al universo místico de la producción teatral, ofreciendo un nuevo contexto para algunas de las obras más célebres de Kahlo y Rivera. El Último Sueño de Frida y Diego, dirigida por Deborah Colker y que se estrenará en la Ópera Metropolitana el 14 de mayo de 2026, está ambientada durante el Día de Muertos, una festividad mexicana que honra a los seres queridos y ancestros fallecidos. La ópera narra la historia de un Rivera anciano que regresa a Kahlo y cómo ambos reviven su colaboración creativa.

Kahlo y Rivera son dos de los artistas más influyentes del siglo XX y Frida and Diego: The Last Dream tiene un significado especial para el MoMA ya que cada artista tuvo una conexión única con el Museo durante su vida. Sus obras, como Self-Portrait with Cropped Hair (1940) y Fulang-Chang y yo (1937) de Kahlo, y Flower Festival: Feast of Santa Anita (1931) y Agrarian Leader Zapata (1931) de Rivera, han sido durante mucho tiempo piezas clave en las galerías de la colección del Museo. Basándose en este legado, esta exposición adopta un enfoque interdisciplinario, presentando su arte en diálogo con la ópera. Una serie de programas públicos producidos en colaboración con la Ópera Metropolitana acompañarán la presentación. Juntos, la exposición y la programación arrojarán nueva luz sobre cómo el arte innovador de Kahlo y Rivera continúa inspirando a artistas de diversas disciplinas hasta el día de hoy.
