Galleria Gaulos opened its doors to the public in June '92 with an exhibition of works by Norbert Attard. Since then, thousands of Maltese as well as foreigners have admired the artistic works of some of the best Maltese artists. Among these we find Pawl Carbonaro, Alfred Chircop, Marco Cremona, Josette Caruana, Paul Haber, David Camilleri, Victor Spiteri, Angela Zuccarello Sardo, as well as the internationally renowned British artist, Victor Pasmore. One can safely deduce that Galleria Gaulos is already a paradise of the visual arts.
Galleria Gaulos is not the usual gallery that we are accustomed to. It is the only private gallery on the island which exhibits works for periods of at least 3 months, thanks to sponsorships by leading companies. Besides, it is also a remarkable townhouse turned into a museum. Built some 300 years ago, this townhouse is in fact one of the first houses that were completed outside the old city or as it is known today, the Citadel. It combines the space and light needed to display the art with the manageable dimensions of a family home. The late world famous artist, Victor Pasmore, described it as being "intimate".
