Museo Jorge Rando — Attraction in Málaga

I am by no means an art buff, but I appreciate art as much as the next person.

I was very happy to visit the Jorge Rando museum while in Malaga.

The entrance is free regardless of the day you visit, so there's no need to buy tickets or a Malaga pass (which I found to be a bit underwhelming compared to other passes for other major tourist destinstions)

If you appreciate modern art, you definitely need to visit or add it to your list if you're in the region. My favorite parts of the exposition were the one about Africa (really deep compositions, you need to take your time to take it in) and the Nature section (very pleasing color pallette, a lot of greens, yellow and orange, energizing compared to the other sections).

Hope this will help other folks discover this amazing museum...

It ranges from delicate butterflies in ink and watercolours in a gloriously peaceful room filled with calming choral music to fully abstract canvases reminiscent of Peter Lanyon and Lee Krasner to more raw, urgent figurative pieces and sculptures.

There was only one other visitor while I was there. It deserves to be packed.

I knew nothing about Rando before my (free) visit, and he's now probably become one of my favourite living artists. A remarkably consistent body of work - politically, if not stylistically - over 60 years? Impressive - and with a message that's as relevant today as...

We were here on a Tuesday afternoon and could‘t have been happier to come. There were only a few people around, so we had time and place to take in the art. The museum has a changing exhibition on ground level, in this case from chinese artists, which was really varied and nice. On the upper floor you have a permanent exhibition of Jorge Randos work divided in sectors. Throughout the museum there are several inspiring quotes from Jorge Rando, that paint him as a philanthropist and caring person. Overall we had a really great experience and can only recommend to come. Bonus: The entry was free and we had a lovely chat with the lady overlooking...
