AN EVENING OF DISCOVERY AT MUSEO JUMEX

A house can hold more than one lifetime. In Helen, Álvaro Urbano draws on the layered history of Casa Cueva, the remarkable home created by Juan O’Gorman, and the stories of artists Helen Fowler O’Gorman and Helen Escobedo. At Museo Jumex, those lives and memories become an immersive installation in which architecture and landscape seem to slip into one another.

Casa Dragones joined Museo Jumex and Travesía Cuatro for the October 15 soft opening, which also introduced Raúl Silva’s Gateway. Silva’s first solo exhibition in Mexico looks beneath the familiar image of the Mexican Caribbean, exploring the telecommunications infrastructure and labor that helped shape Cancún’s rise.

Artists, museum visitors and members of Mexico City’s creative community gathered for an informal evening of discovery, with Casa Dragones Blanco accompanying the occasion.

Both exhibitions opened to the public on October 16 and remain on view through February 7, 2027. Two distinct perspectives, and ample reason to make time for a museum visit.
