Frida & Fridita

More than just an exhibition, the Royal Łazienki Museum allows children to unleash their inner Frida…

Already amassing widespread praise, ‘The Colour of Life. Frida Kahlo’ exhibition at the Royal Łazienki Museum has also won praise for involving the younger generation via a creative space titled ‘Frida and Fridita’. Found inside the Old Guardhouse, and directly inspired by the life and works of the Mexican artist, it’s in here that families and children can experience art through the medium of play.

First introducing visitors to Fridita, a future painter, a girl with a rich imagination and curious about both life and herself, we then meet the older Frida – strong, liberated and shaped by the challenges of life as depicted in her paintings.

Feeling like a guest in the home of of Magdalena Carmen Frieda Kahlo y Calderόn, sit at her dining room table and enjoy the smell of coconuts and oranges, lie back and create in her canopy bed, check out her corset and orthopaedic show, try on Tehuan outfits or simply weave ribbons and flowers into your hair whilst listening to the story behind ‘Beautiful’.
