José Luis Cuevas (b. 1934, Mexico City; d. 2017, Mexico City) was a painter, graphic artist, sculptor and author. He was one of the representatives of the "Generacion de la Ruptura" in the 1950s. This group opposed the Muralism (Diego Rivera, David Alfaro Siqueiros, José Clemente Orozco) with its political statements. In 1959 he participated at the 5th Biennale São Paulo, and in 1977 at documenta 6 in Kassel.
