José Luis Cuevas Museum, Contemporary art museum in Centro Histórico, Mexico City.

The José Luis Cuevas Museum occupies the colonial residential wing of the Convent of Santa Inés, founded in 1600, at Academia Street 13, around the corner from the church. Its rooms display paintings, sculptures and drawings, while the central patio is covered by a steel-and-glass roof and holds the bronze sculpture La Giganta, eight metres tall and weighing eight tons.

The Convent of Santa Inés was founded in 1600 by Diego Caballero and his wife Inés de Velasco, funded by income from their sugar-processing estate, and built to house thirty-three nuns. Damaged by floods in 1624 and a fire in 1639, it was repaired under the patronage of the Marquis of La Cadena. The Reform Laws closed it in 1861; the nuns were moved to Santa Teresa la Antigua and later Santa Catalina de Siena, the tower was demolished, and the residential wing passed into private hands as housing. José Luis Cuevas bought that wing in 1983, restored it with government and private support, and opened the museum on 8 July 1992.

The convent was founded in 1600 by Diego Caballero and his wife Inés de Velasco, and its name honors her. The residential hall later became housing before José Luis Cuevas bought it in 1983 to house his collection of 1,860 works. The Pablo Picasso room displays Cuevas's drawings, and a room is dedicated to works by him and his wife, Bertha Cuevas.

The museum entrance is at 13 Academia Street, around the corner from the Santa Inés Church, just off the Zócalo. Visitors pass through a colonial patio roofed with a steel-and-glass cover added during the restoration. The building was restored in 1988 and opened as a museum on 8 July 1992.

In the courtyard stands La Giganta, an 8-metre bronze figure weighing 8 tons, made by José Luis Cuevas for this exact spot. The museum entrance is at 13 Academia Street, around the corner from the Santa Inés Church.
