Fit-3 ta' Novembru 2018, infetħet il-wirja ta' Paul Haber fil-Gallerija Aldabra, fi SmartCity. F' din ir-Retrospettiva li b'unur qiegħda tippreżenta 37 skultura u installazzjoni, Haber isir l-awtur li jerħi l-ispirtu tiegħu fi tfittixa ta' disinji ġodda, id f' id mal-istint artistiku tiegħu. Skultura għaqlija, b' ambizzjoni fit-teknika u b' kuluri saturata li fi kliem l-artist, huma ''l-kuluri ta' Malta.''

Il-forom jirriflettu xbihat fin-natura, xi mdaqqiet karnali. Oħrajn juru r-rabta tal-artist mal-wirt kulturali ta' pajjiżu. Ir-Retrospettiva ta' Haber hija mixja f'żewġ vjaġġi paralleli; l-ewwel mixja hija matul l-esperjenzi tal-artist li jesebixxi b'tant dedikazzjoni u umilta` minn art twelidu, saħansita fiċ-ċentru ta' Pariġi f' Ġunju 2018. 

It-tieni mixja hi dik bejn dak li jesperjenzaw is-sensi viżwali fl-estetika u bejn is-sotto-konxju f'għarfien surrealista. L-artist qiegħed ipoġġi f'armonija disinji u kuluri avventurużi, fejn waqt li l-għajn tal-udjenza tiġri ma' dawn id-disinji, l-udjenza ssib ruħha f'mistoqsija quddiem dawn il-kompożizzjonijiet ġodda. 

Tispikka l-liberta` tal-artist f'dawn ix-xogħlijiet li mhumiex ristretti anzi qalbiena.  Il-kunfindenza u l-esperjenza tal-artist fil-ħidma taċ-ċeramika, tippermettilu jintilef fil-produzzjoni artistika waqt li jħaddan id-dixxiplina fit-teknika, u joħloq b'għożża kompożizzjonijiet b'karatteristiċi individwali.  
​
Paul Haber ggradwa fiċ-ċeramika mill-Kulleġġ tal-Art Ċentrali ta' St. Martin f'Londra wara studji intensivi fl-arti u l-iskultura f'Malta, l-Italja u r-Renju Unit.

A Message from Noel Scerri at The Plaza

This is an experience I will never forget... a piano improvisation at the center of an art gallery. It is hard to explain how powerful and at the same time magical it is. It is truly inspiring.
I would like to thank all the audience that have watched my performance.

Wish to personally thank Aaron Lu Luigi Rossi and Gabriella Mallia for making this a reality and for their continuous support. Would also like to thank the management of The Plaza, Sliema for providing the space and for their contribution in art.

Another thanks goes to Brincat Pianos for providing this amazing piano and also to Andrew Bugeja for perfecting its condition.

Would also like to thank Just Burger for their kindness in sponsoring our food.
Special thanks to my family (especially to my wife Sylvana), to Cushion and all my friends.
And finally a big well done to all the artists involved at Aldabra Atelier & Gallery❤️

'Valletta' by Alfred Camilleri is in itself a celebration, reflecting the artist's elegance through its technique and his passion through the subject. Bernard Montebello showcases his passion for digital art portaying surreal emotions on canvas. Aaron Lu Luigi Rossi expresses his creative spirit and vision in his installations collaborating with Lambretta Scooters Malta and Scotch and Soda. Art from China by Ping He is a vibrant expression of contemporry age. Tapestry by Domenico Caruso reflects a true mastery of weaving technique capturing emotions in texture.

Today we will unveil an Ischia-inspired painting by Giuseppe Sticchi to the audience in Malta.
We at #Aldabra are truly proud and thankful to all involved.
