Yesterday, the cultural center La Malagueta, managed by the Málaga Provincial Council, presented two events featuring Antonio Lucas, Chantal Maillard, and Lorena Pérez-Jácome. The activities, scheduled for the 20th and 22nd of May, will focus their discussions on the role of art, writing, and culture in the current context.

This week's program will start on Wednesday, May 20, with a new session from the series 'Who is Who: Who's Who in the Art World', featuring Lorena Pérez-Jácome, one of the most prominent figures in patronage and contemporary art collecting in the Ibero-American sphere.

During the meeting, coordinated by María Jesús Martínez Silvente, Pérez-Jácome will review her career linked to the creation of the Adrastus Collection and the development of Collegium, the art center and residency located in Arévalo (Ávila), dedicated to supporting emerging artists and contemporary research and production projects.

On Friday, May 22, the '20/20/20: Poetic Encounters' series will bring together two essential voices of contemporary literature: writer and philosopher Chantal Maillard and poet and cultural journalist Antonio Lucas.

The meeting will propose a dialogue between two ways of understanding poetry and contemporary thought. Maillard's work, awarded the National Poetry Prize for 'Killing Plato', is characterized by writing that moves between philosophical reflection, essay, and exploration of consciousness. Opposite her, Antonio Lucas will contribute a perspective linked to urban experience, memory, and the tensions of everyday life, in a conversation that seeks to relate different poetic geographies and ways of interpreting the present.

All activities will take place at 7:00 PM in Room 001, with free access until full capacity is reached.
