Nearly 80 years ago, artists and spouses Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo came to Detroit. During that time, Kahlo began some of her most famous paintings, and Rivera created his legendary “Detroit Industry” mural at the Detroit Institute of Arts. The passionate couple’s art, drama, tragedy and romance will return to the city again during Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo in Detroit. The DIA exhibition will explore the couple’s relationship to Detroit and to each other through nearly 70 diverse works from the two artists.
