Art History Classes

[72] Frida Kahlo 101

Thu, Apr 17, 1–2:30 pm (1 sessions) | Reynolds Lecture Hall and Galleries
Dr. Sarah Powers, VMFA Exhibition Curator

Join Dr. Sarah Powers, VMFA Exhibition Curator of Frida: Beyond the Myth, for a closer look at the life and work of artist Frida Kahlo. This one-session class will focus on works of art in the exhibition Frida: Beyond the Myth, which explores the life of one of the 20th century’s most documented artists, who, as an individual, continues to elude our understanding of her. This class will aim to go beyond the popular myths about the artist to unpack meaning in the personal
symbolism embedded in her work. The first hour of class will be a lecture in the Reynolds Lecture Hall. The class will conclude with a walkthrough of the special exhibition.

$40 (VMFA members $35)
