Paul McCarthy in Spain

Posted by on October 14, 2009

Malaga, Spain is, of course, the birthplace of Pablo Picasso, whose developments in an art form he would call Cubism grew out of his interest in African art.  Southern Spain has a lot of cultures influence its own culture, and it’s certainly been influential in the old and new world in terms of art and new developments in science and philosophy.  The Mediterranean paradise has a complex and rich history, and it’s well on its way toward constructing a new future for itself.  It’s a pleasure, then, to visit all its complexity in the present time, and to discover your own Malaga, Spain.  Hotel accommodations here are really quite splendid, and speak to both convenience and style.

Our hotels are fantastic choices, and offer you some of the most sumptuous lodgings in all the land.  There are a host of amenities that speak to old and new world sensibilities, and we have something special to offer guests of all ages.  A beautiful night’s sleep, and a magnificent meal, and you’ll be ready to explore the city that inspired Picasso.  Today, you can certainly see plenty of Picasso’s work, and an enormous array of his prints all over the city, and you can also see contemporary artists like Paul McCarthy.

His Brain Box Dream Box at the Contemporary Art Center of Malaga was his first solo exhibition in Spain, and it’s a wonder why it took so long.  He was born in the U.S., and his most famous works have been made while he’s been living in Los Angeles, and the work is very famous all over the world.  It’s combination of double entendre and pop iconography speaks to an ironic and distant attitude, one that is particularly modern.  The show in Malaga is something that would appeal to pop and post modernists from all over the world, and is a nice entrance into Spain by this fascinating artist.
