Jaime González Solís

Jaime González Solís (born 1991) is a curator and art historian. His work focuses on artistic practices that question present problematics, history and identity through fiction, language, and writing. His interest in these topics has led him to draw connections between popular culture and its impact on contemporary sensibilities, from critical perspectives on gender, queerness, decoloniality, and other related approaches. Since 2019, he has been part of the curatorial team at the Museo Universitario Arte Contemporáneo (MUAC) of the UNAM in Mexico City, where he has coordinated exhibitions such as Días únicos by Yvonne Venegas (2019); Amarantus by Mariana Castillo Deball (2021); and Claudia Andujar and the Yanomami Struggle (2023). In 2022, he curated the exhibition Curare: Remedies, Poisons, and Critical Strategies, a review of the archives of the Curare curatorial collective—an essential reference in the history of curating in Mexico. In 2025, he curated Cadáver fantasma, the first institutional exhibition of Tijuana-born artist Andrew Roberts at the MUAC. His career has been marked by a critical reflection on contemporary culture through writing, exhibition-making, and other formats such as group discussion spaces, collaborative processes, and diverse curatorial overflows.

Jaime González Solís is visiting Vienna on a group research trip in June 2025.
