other · 2026-07-22

The Museo Picasso Málaga has unveiled its summer campaign 'Summertime', inviting visitors to immerse themselves in the artist's world through a blend of physical exhibitions and digital initiatives. The campaign's slogan, 'Sumérgete en el Picasso' (Dive into Picasso), encourages exploration of the museum as a refreshing cultural oasis amid the bustling city of Málaga. A key visual is a 1948 photograph of Picasso on the beach at Golfe-Juan, French Riviera, taken by Robert Capa, co-founder of Magnum Photos. The museum will showcase works related to the sea, beaches, and Mediterranean landscapes in the exhibition 'Pablo Picasso: estructuras de la invención. La unidad de una obra', alongside the temporary show 'Joana Vasconcelos. Transfiguración'. Digital offerings include a playlist inspired by George Gershwin's 'Summertime' (1935), podcasts now available in English and Spanish, and social media content under #SummertimeMPM. The museum extends its hours from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily until the end of August, with free admission on Sundays from 6 to 8 p.m. Located in the Palacio de Buenavista, the museum also highlights its garden and archaeological site as tranquil spaces. The campaign also features summer-themed merchandise from the museum's bookstore and online shop.
