Campari is supporting Allura – The Trail, a walking tour of pop-up open artists’ studios at multiple host venues across Sliema and St Julian’s on 3 and 4 November.

The event, endorsed by the Valletta 2018 Foundation, is the first of its kind in Malta, and is a free public event giving visitors the opportunit­y to meet more than 50 artists at work and to share in their creative process and discover their best-kept studio secrets.

The Trail includes digital and photograph­ic art, sculpture, fine art, ceramic, wood and metalwork, virtual reality, film, video-game, fashion, costume and surface pattern design, printmakin­g, artisan crafts, designer handcrafte­d jewellery, illustrati­on, graphic, architectu­ral and product design, 3D printing and carving and various other visual art forms.

Artists include profession­al and part-time creatives, students and school children from the Maltese and internatio­nal communitie­s. The Trail offers a choice of hands-on and spectator experience­s to photograph, discuss, try or buy.

Campari was founded in Milan in 1860 by Gaspare Campari but it was Davide Campari who steered the company to pursue a more dynamic approach to marketing its product, aiming to create a sophistica­ted brand profile. In the early 1900s Campari worked with some of the most celebrated poster designers of the day, such as Leonetto Cappiello, Marcello Dudovich, Adolf Hohenstein and Marcello Nizzoli. Their works feature the original Belle Époque posters, look through the revolution­ary campaigns of the 1920s and culminate in the elegant designs of the 1960s.

“Campari takes pride in its advertisin­g journey, producing posters that are works of art, so we are delighted to continue on this artistic journey to support Allura – the Trail, and this new exciting art venture in Malta,” said Claudia Attard, Campari Brand executive at Farsons Beverage Imports Company (FBIC) Limited.

The general public is invited to visit Badass Balluta on 3 and 4 November where Campari Art will be the focus of the venue. Visitors will experience Campari famous works of Art through various projection­s that will be transformi­ng the venue into a Campari Art gallery.
