Characters in Search of an Author
Paintings and etchings by Stuart Franklin
27 May - 29 July 2026
An exhibition of oil paintings and etchings across two galleries exploring analogy within themes of landscape, or figures in the landscape, and memory. “Analogy is a means of creation”, wrote Pierre Reverdy, an early surrealist poet, and an abiding influence on Franklin’s current work. The title pays homage to Luigi Pirandello’s play, 'Six Characters in Search of an Author’. Stuart Franklin’s studio is in Gozo where all the paintings were completed between 2016-2026.
Emvin Cremona Retrospective
3 August - 1 November 2026
Visit our ongoing exhibition of original artworks by Emvin Cremona. Widely acknowledged as one of Malta’s finest artists, Cremona supplied over 170 designs for 62 sets of stamps. His artworks define and establish an imagery of innovation, often challenging the basic format of stamp design. Inspired by everyday life, Cremona’s designs cover a wide range of subjects including historical events and personalities. They explore the introduction of abstraction in postage stamp artwork and illustrate his interpretation of the human figure and our rich, cultural landscape. These artworks are an absolute treasure.
