The Maltese Pavilion at the Venice Biennale presents itself under the motto "Malta: from Caravaggio's Times to Korea", an exhibition that establishes bridges between Malta and Korea. The show is organized by the Malta Creative Arts Foundation and explores artistic and cultural connections between the two countries.
The exhibition is curated by Alexandra Pace and features artists who seek to break with the Baroque aesthetic that traditionally characterizes Malta. The works explore themes such as poetry, sacred cords, feast traditions and sounds, creating a contemporary dialogue between the two cultures.
Among the participants are Maltese and Korean artists whose works seek to transcend the boundaries of the Baroque, exploring new forms of artistic expression. The exhibition stands out for the way it integrates traditional elements from both cultures in a contemporary perspective.
