**How does Museo Jumex compare to Museo Soumaya next door?**
They are complementary opposites. Jumex is a focused contemporary art museum with curated exhibitions from a single private collection — expect Pop Art, Minimalism, and Latin American conceptual work.

**What is the Fundación Jumex?**
The Fundación Jumex is the cultural arm of Grupo Jumex — Mexico's largest fruit-juice producer. Eugenio López Alonso began collecting art in the 1990s and opened the collection to the public in 2013. The foundation also runs the Colección Jumex Contemporary Art Prize, residencies, and educational programs — making it the most influential private art institution in Latin America.

**Does Museo Jumex have a permanent collection display?**
Jumex does not maintain a fixed permanent display like a traditional museum. Instead, it presents rotating curated exhibitions drawn from the 2,800-work collection, typically changing every 4–6 months. Check the current exhibition before visiting — the quality is consistently high but the specific works on view change regularly.
