Frida Kahlo Museum
Londres 247, Del Carmen, Coyoacán, 04100 Ciudad de México, CDMX
Cobalt-blue family home turned museum, with a garden where the artist once kept monkeys, a fawn, and hairless dogs.
This guide to the Frida Kahlo Museum walks through the menagerie that once filled her family's blue-walled Mexico City courtyard: spider monkeys, a fawn named Granizo, an eagle, and a pack of hairless Xoloitzcuintle dogs, with a small pyramid Diego Rivera built for them. You'll hear how Frida painted these animals into her own self-portraits, using them to stand in for what her body couldn't give her. Listen for how the pyramid and the plants she chose herself still shape the garden today.
