This collective exhibition marks the 25th anniversary of the death of Rafael Pérez Estrada, featuring over 155 works that explore his creative universe between literature and visual arts. The project creates a multidisciplinary dialogue between the author's legacy and the works of historical avant-garde artists and contemporary creators.
Conceived as a 'disordered dictionary,' this exhibition presents an unconventional exploration of the life and work of Rafael Pérez Estrada (1934–2000). Organized into six thematic sections inspired by the author's own aphorisms, the show features a diverse range of media, including painting, sculpture, film, poetry, and archival documentation, to map the intersection between his literary and visual contributions. The project situates Pérez Estrada’s work within a broad creative genealogy, connecting him to historical figures of the 20th-century avant-garde such as Pablo Picasso, Federico García Lorca, and Joan Miró, as well as surrealist and postist movements. By incorporating pieces from numerous institutional and private collections, the exhibition establishes a transversal dialogue that stretches from the historical avant-gardes to contemporary artistic expressions, offering a unique perspective on Malaga's cultural history and the enduring influence of Pérez Estrada’s imaginative world.
The MUCAC La Coracha offers free admission. Visitors are welcome to attend the exhibition during regular opening hours from Tuesday to Sunday, 10:00 to 20:00, with guided tours available weekly at specified times.
