"Viva la Vida", new immersive exhibition at the Multimedia Museum of Cosenza, Italy from 1st October
01 October 2026
The Cosenza Multimedia Museum is opening its doors to a new immersive exhibition dedicated to Frida Kahlo, entitled ‘Viva la Vida’, starting from 1 October.
The exhibition offers an artistic and symbolic journey centred on Frida as a universal icon of freedom and resilience.
“The exhibition analyses Frida Kahlo’s entire body of work from both an artistic and a symbolic perspective, as she represents an icon of extraordinary relevance today” says director Gianfranco Confessore.
The title ‘Viva la Vida’ refers to her last work, painted eight days before her death. “In this detail, I capture the essence of her experience: a hymn to life expressed at the height of her suffering.”
"For many people, Frida Kahlo symbolises freedom, even though life forced her to endure a path of suffering," emphasises the museum’s artistic director, Renato Nuzzolo. "Directed by Gianfranco Confessore, we wanted to bring out her joy for life to make the audience’s ‘souls dance."
In addition to the exhibition on Frida Kahlo, visitors will be able to explore the exhibitions dedicated to Van Gogh, Klimt and the Mesozoic era. A wealth of digital content produced entirely in Calabria and housed at the Multimedia Museum.
