Another exhibition that I visited was healed in the Saint Cavallier Lower Gallery that was hosted by many artists that presented their work, that has a mixture of many materials such as: Pencil drawing with Indian ink, Ceramic works, Oil on canvas, and Rielifs.
Saviour Baldacchino
This is a collection that Saviour Baldacchino presented in this exhibition that have a significant subject of Religion. They are all aspects from our Religion. the one that most amazed me is the Last Dinner. In this painting the artist used warm colors to present the sense of sadness, and he used several face expressions to create a movement.
Andrew Diacono
This is another artist that his work is inspired from the classic style, because of the style that he use to work. In this exhibition Diacono presented structures of men in different poses and actions and even he presented paintings on wood with different media. A structure that I liked is the Man On Penny Farthing, that is done with mixed materials. This is ax example that shows clearly that Diacono looked at the Classic Style.
the inspiration behind this collection that scicluna did for this exhibition, is inspired from the Maltese Subject. This is clearly shown in two works that he produced. Starting from the first one 'Cerva Maltija' (Top Corner Left) he used the Maltese plant that is called 'Bajtra tax- Xewk', to create something on her hair as an adornment (Head Piece) .
The second work that the artist is showing the Maltese Subject is at the bottom-middle that is inspired from the Fat Lady 'l- Mara l- Hoxna' that we find in the Maltese Temples such as: Hagar Qim and Imnajdra.
