THE SPACE WE INHABIT

Published on the occasion of the summer exhibition at MICAS, the book features the works – including paintings, sculpture, video and sound-based work – of six Maltese artists of different generations, with almost all establishing far-reaching reputations: Caesar Attard (b. 1946), Vince Briffa (b. 1958), Austin Camilleri (b. 1972), Joyce Camilleri (b. 1980), Anton Grech (b. 1965) and Pierre Portelli (b. 1961). Arranged around the theme of space – both real and imagined – each of the six artists has responded in different ways, with some evoking a sense of a landscape and others taking a more conceptual view on the idea of space, and by extension, place.
