Director's Tour: "Frida Kahlo: POSE"

Join Dr. Gannit Ankori—Henry and Lois Foster Director and Chief Curator of the Rose Art Museum, Brandeis Professor of Fine Arts and Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies, and Frida Kahlo scholar—for a tour of the exhibition Frida Kahlo: POSE. 

Through rare archival photographs and a close look at Kahlo’s original artworks, Dr. Ankori will discuss how the artist’s transgressive explorations of her queer identity reveals a complex and layered legacy that pioneered the way for future generations of artists.
