Museo Jumex in Residence featuring Pedro Reyes at South London Gallery, London, United Kingdom

4 November 2025

Until 11 January 2026, the Museo Jumex in Mexico City will be exhibiting works by 13 international artists from the Colección Jumex, including Pedro Reyes, as part of a new collaboration with South London Gallery. Through sculpture, painting, performance and installation, the group exhibition explores how identities and emotions are shaped and expressed on stage, on screen and in everyday life.

Pedro Reyes’s Museum of Hypothetical Lifetimes is an interactive installation where visitors reflect on their own life through a guided conversation with a performer playing the role of a therapist. Ana Segovia’s cinematic paintings reimagine 1980s teen films through a queer lens. Isa Genzken’s mannequin series explores stereotypes of creatives and Clotilde Jiménez’s new bronze sculpture Leopoldo introduces a character from his opera The Grotto, commissioned by the Museo Jumex in 2024. A performance of James Lee Byars’s The Perfect Kiss will occur throughout the exhibition. Originally conceived by Byars in the 1970s, a solitary figure will enter the gallery blowing a kiss to the audience.
