Performance Details:
A fun art mystery where a thief targets Caravaggio’s masterpiece and learns how research, restoration and reframing can save it.
A lowly little art thief thinks he can get away with Caravaggio’s masterpiece. Little does he know that nowadays our Maltese museums are equipped with the best technology and staff members in order to safeguard our history.
In addition to that, stealing art pieces will also damage the painting and put it at risk! So now that our art thief is caught, instead of robbing it, allow us to teach him how he could save it through Research, Restoration and Reframing!
A world famous British Detective, Inspector Leicester leads the research team, a highly intelligent French Curator, Roquefort, defines the rigorous restoration, whilst Mafioso Don Pecorino explains the redefining reframing…for security reasons.
And through this wonderful team, we hope to reform this young man!
Workshop Details:
In every museum, where art lives and breathes alongside us, it is imperative that we protect what was left behind! We are the protectors of history and when it comes to restoration, you also become best friends with the artist.
This workshop is aimed to introduce you to the flattering world of restoration. Feel like a restorer during our 20 minute workshop and get lost in the intimate world of restoration!
