Kenneth Zammit Tabona
|
 Kenneth Zammit
Tabona is one of Malta's most popular artists. Working
exclusively in pen and ink, gouache, his Drawing Rooms,
Ecclesiastical Haute Couture, Festas and Town and Landscapes
grace many a fine collection in Malta and overseas. He
has been described as Malta's Fernando Botero with the
sinuous grace of Osbert Lancaster and Beryl Cook's love of
colour, however, his paintings are intrinsically unique and
inimitable; evoking a timeless and poetic portrayal of his
island home and its people with all their quirks and
idiosyncrasies, along with all their innate Mediterranean
beauty and joie de vivre. Kenneth Zammit Tabona's art
has baffled many critics simply because they are at a loss
to put some sort of a label to his work. No label
really applies. There is a sense of drama in each
painting which tells or insinuates a story. This is
why his art speaks for itself, honest to goodness Nostalgia
with a capital N!
