Our Story

 Marie Gallery 5 launched with a goal to represent Malta's finest contemporary artists, whilst raising the bar for the Maltese contemporary art scene both nationally and internationally, providing a platform to artists entering the global art market. Maria Galea founded the gallery on the principle that galleries are a voice for art and artists. With two prime locations in Mosta and Valletta, it is described as “ one of the very few private art galleries – completely dedicated to showcasing some of the finest contemporary art in Malta both from the primary and secondary market.” Having represented local artists in international art fairs in New York, Miami and Dubai, the gallery has established itself as a space dedicated to cultivating and promoting local artists through a new lens. 

Between 2017 & 2018 , the gallery a launched a new partnership with Internationally acclaimed hospitality company Iniala, whereby together they opened a cluster of galleries across Malta as well as one in Thailand called Iniala 5. During this time the gallery was part of an intense exhibition calendar showcasing both local and international artists on a monthly basis. 

Marie Gallery5 is also the sole representative of the Isabelle Borg estate and collection, managing the private collection of Malta's most prominent female artist who passed away in 2010.

Estate Management, private sales and curatorial projects are part of the galleries advisory services which has led to the gallery's sustainable growth through numerous project, collaborations and partnerships in a volatile market. The gallery has been commissioned large scale art commissioned projects within the hospitality, corporate  and public sectors.
