“La Casa Azul” A Pop-Up Dinner Series, Inspired By The Artist Frida Kahlo

During Art Dubai Week 2018, INKED, in collaboration with flora&faunavisions present “La Casa Azul “, a pop-dinner series inspired by the artistic universe and musings of one of the most momentous artists of the 20th century – Frida Kahlo.

The pop-up dinner experience will take guests into a three-dimensional immersive culinary representation of the artist – from her home and sanctuary which is known as the “Caza Azul”, to her love for the varying shades of cultures which Mexico boast.  Though she was trapped in a body constantly wracked with pain and the many dramatic episodes of her life, she has let light and the freedom of a life without boundaries infiltrate her inside out.

La Casa Azul will conceptualize in a culinary food experience showcasing the 360° multimedia installation INSIDEOUT by flora&faunavisions, the reality of Frida Kahlo. Frida Kahlo was not only a renowned Mexican artist, but also an indomitable spirit. Her paintings were a juxtaposition of mixed realism and fantasy, often depicting her own emotions. Both joyful and dramatic, her paintings portray strength and female empowerment as well as melancholia and perseverance.

Details:

La Casa Azul will take place from March 19 to 24, 2018. One dinner seating will take place each evening at 8:30pm for a maximum capacity of 40 guests at AED 485 per person. Tickets can be purchased online on www.inked.ae
