Driven by a passion for multidisciplinary artistic projects, Márgara curated this exhibition celebrating the life and work of muralist Diego Rivera. The exhibition was organized around “different Diegos”, each representing a specific period of Rivera’s career, allowing visitors to explore the breadth of his artistic evolution. It showcased his lesser-known international murals, incorporated period artifacts, and transformed elements of his Cubist phase into immersive three-dimensional installations. Designed for children and families, combined education and interactive museography to engage audiences of all ages.
