Frida and Diego: The Last Dream

Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera formed the most volcanic couple in 20th-century Mexican art. Starting January 15, 2026, the MoMA will bring together the major works of these two giants to shed light on their passionate dialogue. On one side, Frida’s poignant self-portraits tell of intimacy, pain, and a fierce Mexican identity; on the other, Diego Rivera’s committed creations testify to the social struggles of an entire people. This artistic confrontation reveals an intellectual complicity that survived personal storms and separations. Rarely had a selection been able to so powerfully transcribe the alchemy between self-discovery and collective engagement. This event will run until September 12, 2026, offering a fresh perspective on a vibrant cultural legacy that continues to mark the history of art.
