Agustín Arteaga has become the new CEO of the Crocker Art Museum in Sacramento, taking over the role on July 1 after a global career leading museums in Mexico, Argentina, and Texas. In a major early achievement, he secured Frida Kahlo's 1947 painting "Self-Portrait with Loose Hair" for the museum's exhibition "Making Moves: A Collection of Feminisms"—the first time a Kahlo original has ever been displayed at the Crocker. The painting is on loan from a private collection through May 3, 2026, and has drawn record crowds to the museum.
