Frida: The Making of an Icon at Tate Modern

We are proud to be a corporate partner of Frida: The Making of an Icon at Tate Modern this summer.

This is the first time in our history that we have supported a cultural event of this scale. We are honoured to help bring to life the first major exhibition to explore how Frida Kahlo became a global icon and a key influence on a generation of artists.

For 555 years, The Dyers’ Company has celebrated the art and craft of colour, making this partnership a fitting tribute to our enduring heritage. Featuring more than 30 of Kahlo’s iconic works alongside clothing, jewellery, photographs and over 200 pieces by artists she inspired, the exhibition offers a vibrant journey through the life and lasting influence of one of the world’s most celebrated artists.

On now at Tate Modern.
