The whole expirince was very fun and insightfull. I dont know much of art but going to the museum opened my eyes to the life of a well known artist. Her life was at every room of that house, and in "el jardin". Enjoyed how you could walk into each room. loved everything from the dinning and kitchen to her bedroom and work area. I would go ...
It's called the Blue house and Frida lived there as well as in another house with Diego Rivera. It'll take about an hour or so to see everything. The most interresting thing (in my opinion) was the collection of her letters. If you are really interrested in her and her life, the traveling exhibition is much better. I saw it in Monterrey ...
Awesome place! But the gift shop was closed for inventory. They should do that during after hours. But the art and history was unforgettable. It was located in a quiet neighborhood.It is a nice change from the bustle and hustle of Mexico City.
We went to Mexico City to see the 100 years of Frida at the Belles Artes Museum. We took a day out to go to beautiful and charming Coyacan. After seeing Dolores Olmedo's home and gardens, we visited Frida's casa. The space is warm and inviting. The exhibition was very well installed and the house is as if she just left. The colorful walls ...
I had been told by many people that it felt like she had just left the room. I did not get that feeling at all. I had read that clothes were found anew and had been refurbished but I saw no clothes. I believe these things would have given a more personal experience with Frida, herself, in a sense. There was no bathroom shown, the livingroom was ...
We try to go once a year to Cuernavaca (45 minutes away from Mexico City) and since my daughter Ixia (8 yrs. old) loves everything about Frida Khalo we promised her to stop by the Casa Azul. She got excited but dissapointed because she wasn't able to touch anything. We explained her why she couldn't touch and she understood and wants to go ...
Totally cool! During a business trip to Hotel Nikko Mexico City, I was lucky enough to visit El Museo Frida Kahlo in Coyoacan, which is about a 30 minute taxi ride from the busy bustling city life.
The museum is a U-shaped blue house with a courtyard full of Meso-American sculptures, skull shrines, and flowers. Giant paper mache puppets ...
I loved this place!!! I just went there about a week ago and it was amazing. Frida's artwork was very beautiful and enigmatic. Her jewelry and clothing was outrageous and beautiful and all her pre-hispanic objects were interesting. I would definitley recommend anyone of any age to go there.
Interesting to see where and how she lived. The museum (house) was a bit crowded initially and the staff seemed to congregate near the entrance and ignore the flow of visitors. Although they were very clear about "no cameras" at the entrance, there were SEVERAL people taking photographs (even right in front of the staff). All-in-all a ...
Frida's house was one of the highlights of my visit to Mexico City. Great to see the human side of this extraordinary artist. Coyoacan, the surrounding neighborhood, is also a treat
