| Abstract: | On August 17 2019, Malta and the art community suffered the loss of a veteran artist and educator, Ġanni Bonnici. In this article, Louis Laganà pays tribute to Ġanni Bonnici, who 'will remain known in local art history as undoubtedly a leading sculptor and ceramic artist of the last half a century. He is recognised as an important figurative sculptor in many other foreign countries. His academic background and rigorous studies of the human form in sculpture, championed him as a leader in realistic representation of many significant works found on the islands and overseas'. |
