The Picasso Museum: Andalucia

The 'Casa Natal', or birthplace, of Picasso, is situated in the Plaza de la Merced in the centre of Malaga.

In 1998 the building was taken over by the Picasso Foundation and officially re-opened by the Spanish Royals.

Along with Picasso's prints and ceramics, you can see his graphic art from the period 1931 - 1971 and illustrated books, with 3,500 examples of contemporary art, exhibited by over 200 artists.

October is the beginning of a new exhibition at the museum that will certainly take your breath away.

The exhibition of Picasso: object and image comes to the museum and will give holidaymakers an insight into the different techniques used by the artist.

A total of about 60 works will be on display that have used different materials and techniques, including the important ceramic pieces that have not often been displayed with his other works.

Leaving your villa to visit the museum will give a unique insight to the life and influences of Malaga's greatest artist, and there can be no better venue than the place of his birth to experience the true essence of Picasso
