Museum Jorge Rando, Contemporary art museum in Málaga, Spain.
The Museum Jorge Rando houses an extensive collection of expressionist and neo-expressionist artworks within the renovated 19th-century Las Mercedarias monastery, featuring four main exhibition rooms with natural lighting, a library, workshop spaces, and an interior courtyard with a century-old mandarin tree.
Established in 2014 following a three-year renovation project that began in 2011, the museum transformed the historic Las Mercedarias monastery into Spain's first dedicated expressionist art institution, officially opening its doors to the public on May 28, 2014.
The museum serves as Spain's first and only institution dedicated to expressionist and neo-expressionist movements, regularly hosting temporary exhibitions, workshops, film discussions, poetry readings, and educational programs that promote contemporary artistic dialogue and community engagement.
The museum operates Monday through Saturday from 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM with free admission, though it lacks wheelchair accessibility due to the historic building's architectural constraints, and visitors should note that large bags and flash photography are prohibited.
The museum functions as a 'Living Room of Art' where visitors can engage with art historians without prior booking, while the building uniquely combines reinforced concrete and weathering steel with the original monastery's spiritual ambiance.

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.
