關於
The Museo Leonora Carrington is a museum with venues in the San Luis Potosí City and Xilitla, state of San Luis Potosí, México; dedicated to the surrealist artist Leonora Carrington, the Museo Leonora Carrington San Luis Potosí opened 22 March 2018, with Juan Manuel Carreras as governor of the state. The museum houses a collection of the artist's sculptures, jewelry, engravings, and personal objects; and presents temporary exhibits about surrealism and works influenced by Carrington's work. The collection was donated by Pablo Weisz Carrington, son of the artist, for the creation of the museum.
In 2017 Leonora Carrington's home studio in Mexico City was purchased by Mexico City’s Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana from Carrington's son with the stipulation that it would become a museum. In October 2024 it was announced by the university that this would not happen, and that the house would instead become a "documentation centre" for "teaching and research".
