Additional Information

The Russian Museum in Malaga (Colección del Museo Ruso) is situated in a beautiful, historic former tobacco factory, showcasing splendid art over an area of 2,300 square meters.
This grand exhibition, featuring hundreds of pieces, reflects the ardent collecting enthusiasm of José María Castañé, a trustee of the National Library and the Prado Museum, and the proud possessor of the finest and most extensive collection of Russian paintings in Spain.
The display presents unseen Russian art pieces in our country by renowned artists like Natan Altman, Deineka, Zinaida Serebriakova, Kandinsky, Natalia Goncharova, and Liubov Popova; non-Russian art from Anselm Kieffer, Alex Katz, Eduardo Arroyo, and Rusiñol; along with original documents bearing witness to significant epochs in Russia and Soviet Union’s history, ranging from the downfall of the Russian Empire, the revolution, the Soviet era, to the Cold War.

Very enjoyable experience - Located in a very nicely restored old building, that belonged to a tobacco plant, we enjoyed this museum a lot. We did not know how many excellent Russian painters there were. So, nive building, good paintings, kind people. Tip: right next to the Automobile Museum, which also has a nice restaurant. So can visit both.

Abuse complaint about the right to privacy - I was visiting the collection recently and it was wonderful. Although the visit was clouded. Since, when I passed with my husband, the access with the security guard. An intimate device was seen from my bag that I was carrying. The family behind with minors looked at me and laughed and my husband realized the situation. I was very embarrassed and felt an invasion of my intimacy and privacy. When anyone saw my things on the screen, I didn't complain because we had just enough time to go back. It is a real shame that this type of control is allowed and who could have been the scholar who designed this in this way. The staff were very friendly and the building was beautiful, but this incident made me have a hard time. I have traveled and visited many cultural centers and I have never seen anything like this, I hope it doesn't happen again.
