Mauricio Limón in Museo Jumex Mexico
The Museo Jumex presents Football & Art. A Shared Emotion, on view from 28 March to 26 July 2026, bringing together international artists who examine football as a global cultural and aesthetic phenomenon.
The exhibition explores the sport beyond its competitive dimension, positioning it as a system of images, rituals, and collective experiences that shape identities across regions and social contexts. Through a wide range of media—including installation, video, painting, and archival material—the show addresses themes such as mass emotion, spectacle, memory, and the politics embedded in the game.
Among the participating artists is Mauricio Limón de León, whose work investigates the body as a site of inscription and control. His contribution reflects on the football field as a choreographed space, where gestures, uniforms, and collective movement reveal underlying social and symbolic structures. In this context, his practice aligns with the exhibition’s broader inquiry into how individual identity is negotiated within systems of mass participation.
Football & Art. A Shared Emotion is on view at Museo Jumex, located at Blvd. Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra 303, Col. Granada, 11520 Mexico City, Mexico.
