By Leaning into Its Past, Malta Is Shining a Light on Its Future | Condé Nast Traveler

"A 10-minute walk from the City Gate, Malta International Contemporary Arts Space (MICAS) opened last year with a mission, as its exhibitions manager Guillaume Dreyfuss puts it, to bolster Malta's cultural infrastructure and raise its role in the contemporary art world. Housed in an 18th-century hospice, the Florence-based firm Ipostudio gutted the space to create a Chutes-and-Ladders–style gallery full of modern sky bridges, restored tunnels and secret staircases; inside a giant knit tree by Joana Vasconcelos climbs into a skylighted rotunda, a bluestone figurative sculpture by Ugo Rondinone sits in the landscaped garden, and the darkened chambers below feature mesmerizing kinetic light sculptures by Conrad Shawcross, with the program also highlighting local work such as a metal-and-rod piece by Raymond Pitrè." - Adam H. Graham

I had never heard of this museum before, it only opened at the end of last year. The building itself is a beautiful combination of restored historical architecture and modern design. Visiting the exhibition of a Portuguese contemporary artist was a pleasant experience. There is a touch of nostalgia, because we really have something to remember. The staff was incredibly friendly 😁 - they are welcoming, communicative and made the experience warm. Of course, everyone has their own taste, but this was my sincere and personal impression.

A great new art space which I am sure will become one of the most popular in Malta. The combination of the old fortifications with modern art makes the experience even more unique! It’s good that it has the space for big installations. A coffee shop will definitely contribute to the whole experience 😊

A hidden gem of Malta :) spacious gallery, built especially for presenting huge installations and objects. Remember to check out outdoor exhibition spaces with Maltanese artists, they are hidden and without help, we wouldn't find it. During our visit, they also exhibited an artwork, which was firstly presented at Venice Biennale.

Wonderful space to see some excellent art installations. Remember to go down the slope to see the outside exhibits too.

Pipes that sing when you are near - the one interesting thing inside. Want to see modern art? IKEA has more interesting exhibition.

Such a lovely building and great exhibition. Would recommend to get away from the madness of Valleta high street.

Beautiful place, still not 100% finished. I found parking around the corner (it was a weekend), close to Excelsior. Staff was friendly.

MICAS is so great !!! I love this kind of design which links old with modern architecture. A lot of space to show contemporary art. Very interesting exhibition of modern malthese artists. You can not skip this place in Floriana if you are really fan of modern art !
