Take a look at Autorretrato con el retrato del Dr. Farill also known as Autorretrato con el Dr. Juan Farill (Self-Portrait with Dr. Juan Farill) (1951) and visit the exhibition with Artist and Writer Jameisha Prescod, creator of disabled-led creative media company You Look Okay To Me.
Take a look at the surreal and exciting world of Frida Kahlo, an artist who experimented with self-portraiture, symbolism and identity. Jameisha Prescod will speak to what Frida Kahlo's artwork can offer us in terms of the life of a disabled artist in the 20th century and the realities of being a disabled artist today.
The talk will be followed by an opportunity to visit the exhibition out of hours. The ticket includes exhibition entry.
This talk will have a BSL interpreter.
