STILL LIFE, LIFE STILL - An exhibition of works by Giorgio Preca and Ryan Falzon
Curated by Giulia Privitelli
This exhibition is organised by the Malta Society of Arts
In this exhibition of natura morta paintings, Ryan Falzon enters into a visual dialogue with Giorgio Preca (1909–1984). Works which are often considered to be without narrative are here presented in such a way so as to guide the visitor into questioning the life of material reality, into moving away from viewer to participant, from object and possession to the symbol, which, like a dark mirror, points to a reality that cannot be possessed, cannot be held – it is free, alone, and, in a sense, beyond nature: the imagination.
