The Gozitan artist Justin Falzon, who has been a student at the Art Institute Lorenzo De Medici for these past four years, is now reading for a Bachelor of Arts in Fine Art. He will be completing the course and graduating in May.

Lately Justin Falzon participated in an art exhibition for students organised by Regione Toscana, Provincia di Firenze, Provincia di Prato, Embassy of Greece in Italy and the Generale Consulate of United States of America. The exhibition was organised on the occasion of the Festa della Toscana 2008 and this year the exhibition centred on the theme of work in all its forms. The title of the exhibition was Art Clash and as its name proclaims, aspired to be multi-ethnic and multi-linguistic movement. On this occasion the Museum of Contemporary Art in Florina, Greece acquired three paintings of the Gozitan artist Justin Falzon. The Museum of Contemporary Art incorporates a remarkable collection of 500 paintings, sculptures and engravings, mostly by artists from Greece and also from abroad.
