Following an internal museum fit-out across all three gallery levels, this is a curated exhibition occupying all the gallery spaces and featuring the work of leading Malta-based contemporary artists. Selected and installed around the concept of imagined space, the exhibition includes artists from several different generations, working across differing media and it will illustrate the depth and richness of contemporary art practice in Malta. It also marks the beginning of regular exhibitions within the programme that explore and showcase Malta-based art within a global context.
Artists featured in this first exhibition include Caesar Attard, Austin Camilleri, Joyce Camilleri, Anton Grech, Pierre Portelli and Vince Briffa.
The Space we Inhabit introduces a strand of programming which will be a manifestation of the museum’s commitment to celebrate Maltese art at its highest form, bringing it to a wider international stage and contextualising it within the overall exhibition programme.
