| Following a request by Maltese ceramist George Muscat | of Naxxar for an opportunity to exhibit his works in Italy, the Malta Embassy in Rome helped identify an exhibition which is presently touring Calabria. |
| Three works by Muscat have been included in the | exhibition. This event, called Ulisse ritorna nella costa degli Dei, is being presented in the coastal towns of Vibo Valentia, Pizzo Calabro, Briatico, Parghelia, Zambrone, Tropea, C. Caticano and Nicotera. |
| Sculptor Vincenzo Cicala is taking part with 24 | works, a sculpture for every canto of the Odyssey which form an emblematic reconstruction of the voyage of Ulysses. The programme includes also a series of conferences on the main theme, readings from the Odyssey musical and soirées. |
| George Muscat is participating with three pieces | which are very much in theme with the Ulysses myth: Penelope's Web, Aeolus's Gift and Salt Pans. Muscat, born in Naxxar in 1962, has studied with Gabriel Caruana at the Targa Gap School for Craftsmen and has been involved in ceramics for the last 25 years. He is considered as one of the more promising artists in the Maltese cultural scene. He has taken part in several collective and personal exhibitions. |
| Furthermore George Muscat's works will be put on | display in the Cloister of San Domenico in Taverna, Mattia Preti's birth place, on August 27, together with the works of several foreign and Italian artists, in the exhibition Il Parnaso organised by sculptor Silvio Amelio. The event was inaugurated by the Mayor of Taverna Avv. Gregorio Ferrari. |
