Local artist Nickie Sultana recently collaborated with Branch manager George Vassallo at Frank Salt Real Estate's Sliema branch to host a solo art exhibition within the branch on Tower Road, Sliema. 

George made adjustments to his branch in order to be able to display art collections on a larger scale and Nickie, an internationally celebrated Maltese artist, was the obvious choice to be the first artist to display an art collection within the branch.

The exhibition kicked off with a lively evening launch event, well attended by clients and friends of both Frank Salt Real Estate and Sultana, and with Nickie's art available for sale, there was keen interest in securing a piece.

Nickie studied classical and contemporary art at Lorenzo Dei Medici University, Leonardo Da Vinci Art Academy and Accademia del Giglio in Florence Italy. Apart from solo exhibitions she also participates in collective ones both locally and overseas. The collection covers each genre of her work, from flora to busy local streets, portraits to landscapes and from seascapes to calm beach scenes.

The exhibition marks the first event hosted by Frank Salt Real Estate in support of artists in Malta.  The branch network across Malta and Gozo already displays an extensive collection of art on its walls and the company will continue to organise events in branches in support of art initiatives.

"In line with our Frank Salt brand promise, we believe in being relevant and local," said Carmen Chilton, Marketing manager of Frank Salt Real Estate. "Art, in any form, is an obvious link to property. We all know how it feels to have that piece of art in our home or office that means something to us and for us to be able to collaborate with talented artists living and working in Malta, is a wonderful initiative for us."

Nickie's collection will be on display at Frank Salt Real Estate Sliema, 201 Tower Road until 22 April.
