Beyond the Franchises: The Alternative Cultural Agenda in Málaga

Málaga has successfully branded itself as a city of museums. With the Centre Pompidou, the Picasso Museum, and the Carmen Thyssen, there is no shortage of world-class art for the weekend visitor. However, for those of us living here—or visiting for longer than a few days—the glossy brochures sometimes feel a bit detached from the daily pulse of the city, making the recent opening of alternative creative spaces like Creætica a welcome addition.
