EXHIBITIONS UNTIL FEBRUARY 14 iMprint iMprint is an exhibition by contemporary painters and artists based in Malta, collectively exploring the various techniques of printmaking used by old masters, taking place at St James Cavalier, Valletta. Throughout the ages, the printing technique has often been employed by most artists since it allows multiple copies to be obtained, while simultaneously giving space for experimentation between one print and the next. The project will furthermore see the launch of the setting up of a Fine Art Printmakers Association, formed to endorse and encourage a professional approach in the organisation of such events as well as in the practice of this artistic skill. UNTIL FEBRUARY 14 Watches Palazzo Falson Historic House Museum in collaboration with Fondazzjoni Patrimonju Malti is continuing with its series of temporary exhibitions with an exhibition dedicated to antique watches. Over 50 watches specially loaned from private and museum collections, highlight the technological and artistic qualities of antique watches. This exhibition is guest-curated by David Thompson, who occupied the role of senior curator of Horology at the British Museum until his recent retirement.
