La Colección Jumex is a spectacular collection of more than 2,600 works by emerging and established contemporary artists from Mexico, Latin America, the United States and Europe. Based in Mexico City, Fundación/Colección Jumex has a 10-year history of supporting contemporary art through collecting, exhibitions and educational programs.
