A Unique Setting
The Collection of the Russian Museum in Málaga is housed inside an entire old tobacco factory. Not only will you be awestruck by the works on display here, but the venue itself will charm you. The tobacco factory, built in a regionalist style of the 20s, is now home to centuries worth of art. It has a small auditorium, three screening halls, a space for digital resources, and even a reading room packed with reference books!
Watch out for a series of long-term and temporary exhibitions that engage with the evolution of Russian art and its relationship with European culture.
