Containing what is considered the country’s best collection of contemporary art, the Jumex Museum opened this week. Name comes from the Mexican Juice Corporation (a free translation of the firm’s name), which provided funding. Located in what is being called the New Polanco, adjoining swank Polanco itself, the museum was designed by Britain’s David Chipperfield and the structure itself is considered a work of art. Mexico City already claims to have more museums than any other world capital.
