Mexico City, July 9, 2026. – Museo Jumex’s fall and winter 2026 season underscores the scope and diversity of its curatorial program, reflecting the museum’s commitment to present both major surveys of internationally acclaimed artists and significant new projects by leading mid-career voices from Latin America and beyond. The season includes the first major survey of Richard Prince’s work in Latin America, an immersive installation produced for the museum by Álvaro Urbano, and Raúl Silva’s first solo exhibition in Mexico. The suite of exhibitions offers a broad perspective of contemporary art and will be on view from September 2026 through early February 2027.

Richard Prince’s first major survey in Latin America, Tell Me Everything, opens September 26. The exhibition is arranged around in-depth explorations of the artist’s most iconic series—"Cowboys" and "Girlfriends", and "Jokes" and "Cartoons"—which have recurred throughout more than 40 years of Prince’s career. These bodies of work are contextualized within the artist’s broader practice through selected pieces from his early rephotography of advertising and fashion images; explorations of painting in "Nurses", "de Koonings", and "High Times" canvases; and his "Hoods" series and other sculptural works. Curated by the artist himself in collaboration with Kit Hammonds, Chief Curator of Museo Jumex, the exhibition includes more than 130 pieces from the 1970s to the present.

In an immersive installation produced for the Museo Jumex’s gallery 1, Álvaro Urbano’s Helenopening on October 16 explores the overlapping architectural and botanical histories that have accumulated over decades in Juan O’Gorman’s Casa Cueva in Mexico City. Helen weaves together the legacies of figures who inhabited this space, including O’Gorman, his wife, the botanist Helen Fowler, and later the architect Helen Escobedo, revealing cycles of construction, modification, and transformation that have marked the property.

Gateway marks Raúl Silva’s first solo exhibition in Mexico and expands his exploration of media and technology into telecommunications to examine shifts in economic and aesthetic paradigms during the 1990s. The exhibition, which includes a new video installation accompanied by archival materials, paintings, and sculptural elements, focuses on the coast of Cancún as both a tourist destination and enclave of the pre-Hispanic imaginary. Gateway opens on October 16.

Through its exhibitions, publications, research, and public programs, Museo Jumex familiarizes audiences with the concepts and contexts that inform current art practice. Through the use of critical and pedagogical tools, the museum’s educational programs further the institution’s commitment to build links between contemporary art and the public.
