Can artworks take on new meanings simply by being displayed near one another? This session will focus on Frida Kahlo’s Fulang-Chang and I (1937), Meret Oppenheim’s Object (1936), and Tarsila do Amaral’s A Lua (The Moon) (1928).

This session is led by Angela Garcia.

Join us for lively conversations and engaging activities, facilitated by Museum educators, that offer insightful and unusual ways to engage with MoMA’s collection and special exhibitions.

Gallery Sessions are free for members and Museum admission ticket holders. No registration is required. Groups meet in the Marron Atrium, Floor 2.

FM headsets for sound amplification are available for all talks.

This event is part of Gallery Sessions.
