“Frida Kahlo’s artistry continues to be more relevant than ever, and this immersive exhibition is a must-see for anyone who admires her work and legacy,” said Paul Dupont-Hébert, president of Tandem, in a release.
The immersive experience is brought to us by the organizers behind Imagine Van Gogh, Imagine Picasso, and Imagine Monet events across Canada and the US over the past three years.

Guests will explore the life and artistry of the influential Mexican artist in a unique and immersive way.
Unlike other exhibitions, The Immersive Biography will not include reproductions of Kahlo’s iconic paintings. Instead, visitors will discover historical photographs, original films, digital environments, artistic installations, collector’s items, 360-degree projections, and newly created music at the PNE Agrodome.

“Consequently, we aim to create a space that portrays Frida Kahlo in an authentic, genuine, and comprehensive manner, incorporating diverse sources of information. This has given rise to Frida Kahlo: The Immersive Biography.”
