EDITION OF THE BOOK ON NON-CERAMIC ART BY GABRIEL CARUANA
The other side of Gabriel Caruana has always been in the shade of his brilliant ceramics! The artist himself never made a secret of the fact that he considered clay his most natural medium. On many an occasion he has expressed such like opinions, facilitating the wrong impression that his Paintings, drawings and sculptures would be a sort of side-effect of his ceramics. The Institute for Maltese Culture made a substantial contribution which made the publication of this outstanding work of photography by the Dutch photographer Bonne ten Kate possible. The work was first published together with an exhibition of the non ceramics works of Maestro Gabriel Caruana at the St. James Cavalier Center for Creativity in Valletta.

The molecule “Maltanedienol” was officially named in honour of Malta. As far as we know, not since Sir David Bruce’s discovery of a micro-organism connected to undulant fever in 1887 and named Brucellosis Melitensis, has a scientific discovery been named with Malta in mind.
“Maltanedienol” was discovered by a team of Maltese, French and Tunisian scientists working together on the unique healing properties of Mediterranean seaweed.
