Centro de Arte Contemporáneo de Málaga, Contemporary art museum in central Málaga, Spain
The Centro de Arte Contemporáneo occupies a former wholesale market building with 6000 square meters of exhibition and educational spaces across two floors.
The museum began operations in February 2003 when Infanta Cristina inaugurated the center, following the German Kunsthalle model for contemporary art presentation.
The permanent collection contains 400 artworks from private collectors, featuring North American artists from the 1960s including Lichtenstein, Johns, and Stella.
The museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 to 20:00, offering free admission to all exhibitions, workshops, and educational programs.
The center will undergo extensive renovations starting September 2024, merging with MUPAM to create MuCAC Málaga across three separate locations.

Between the Mediterranean and the Andalusian hills, Malaga blends southern warmth with a thousand-year history. Birthplace of Picasso, it combines Moorish fortresses, Renaissance churches, orange-scented alleys, and avant-garde museums. The Alcazaba overlooks the city from its Moorish walls, the Roman theater recalls its origins, and the Cathedral of the Incarnation connects the centuries. Along the port, the Pompidou Center, contemporary galleries, and subtropical gardens revitalize Andalusian modernity. The stroll is slow, between white light and warm shadows, from the Atarazanas market to the views of Gibralfaro. Malaga is no longer just a seaside stopover: it is a city to explore, to see, and to feel.
