Malta born sculptor Joe Xuereb, has started carving in 1973 under the tutelage of British archaeologist Marie Claridge. His work is influenced by the Earth Mother motif which is predominant in the Maltese Neolithic civilisation. The senuous lines and tactile finish of his sculpture together with the expressive symbolism of his art are the hallmarks of Xuereb's distinctive oeuvre. So far he has held personal exhibitions in Malta, Netherlands, Germany, France, Italy and New York. His work is represented by 'SOL Gallery' of Siena, Italy and Montserrat Gallery of Chelsea, New York. In 1999, his work was featured on CNN 'ArtClub' programme. Today he runs his own Studio and Gallery from his own residence.
Location: Malta (Island of Gozo).
