Artworks 2024 by Antoine Paul Camilleri
22 November 2024 - 3 January 2025
The Malta Postal Museum & Arts Hub is delighted to welcome back artist and sculptor Antoine Paul Camilleri following his successful exhibition in April 2023. This new exhibition showcases recent works from 2024 across various media, each embodying Camilleri's ongoing exploration of line, shadow, and light. Created this year, the collection includes pyrographic pieces, ceramic sculptures (Camilleri's preferred medium), bronze sculptures, and intricate drawings and paintings. While still capturing the spirit of Valletta, Camilleri’s focus now extends to Malta's surrounding villages and towns, revealing vibrant street scenes, Baroque architecture, and rural landscapes. On display are three-dimensional ceramic sculptures, some mounted on panels, a captivating ceramic street scene from Valletta, and a series of dynamic bronze horses.
Pioneering Early Photography : Postal Photographs by Richard Ellis
28 October - 31 December 2024
Our First Floor Gallery is showing a photographic exhibition of a number of rare black and white photos taken in the early 1920’s by English photographer Richard Ellis. The prints focus exclusively on the General Post Office in Merchant’s Street and also take us behind the scenes to the sorting rooms where Malta’s mail was readied for dispatching.
