Hilda Trujillo, former Director of the Diego Rivera-Anahuacalli Museum and the Frida Kahlo Casa Azul Museum from 2002–2020, talks to us live from Mexico City about the artists, their lives, and their art. Considered one of only nine experts in the work of Frida Kahlo in the world today, Trujillo has organized many international exhibitions of the artist’s work and led the research and publication of numerous projects involving Kahlo and Rivera.

In this virtual, illustrated talk, inspired by The World of Frida and Frida Kahlo in Context, Trujillo will speak to us—in Spanish with simultaneous interpretation in English—about Kahlo’s art, inspiration, and life, covering topics ranging from Mexico and the world at the time, to the influence of her friends, her father, Guillermo Kahlo, and her husband, Diego Rivera.

The program will be introduced by HRM Director and CEO Masha Turchinsky and moderated by José Higuera López, Ph.D., Deputy Director of The Mexican Studies Institute at The City University of New York, Lehman College.
