Le Méridien St Julian's Hotel & Spa has renewed its agreement with Claude Camilleri for another two years as the award winning boutique hotel's official curator.

Mr Camilleri comments, "These are exciting times for art in Malta, and Le Méridien's vision to inspire visitors within its spaces, including their warm hospitality and professional acumen are the perfect recipe to continue seeing their art vision through into 2016.

"2015 was amazing; yet, we are just getting warmed up and expect the New Year to be art-spectacular. We are turning up the notch yet again, and to start off the art season we will commence with the International Art Collective III 26 February, a date to be kept free for all art enthusiasts and art collectors alike."

Le Méridien St Julian's General Manager Alex Incorvaja adds, "The vision behind these art exhibitions is that the brand is all about the creative, open-minded, and curious traveller. Culture and art plays an important role, and we came up with the concept of art exhibitions about 18 months ago. Claude Camilleri showed me some pieces of art and we were very much intrigued. Claude understands what we want, and what Le Méridien wants, so this is a match made in heaven."

The hotel's annual exhibition calendar will consist of two International art collectives and two duo exhibitions. Artists from overseas and local artists will contribute a diverse palette of mediums, primarily including art on canvas, sculptures, installations and video art.
