In 1914, APS Bank moved its headquarters and members’ club from Palazzo Caraffa on St. Christopher Street in Valletta, to a more centrally located space in the capital city on St. Paul Street. The building would come to be known as APS House, and the bank occupied the premises until the early 21st century, when it relocated to Republic Street.
In 2021, APS entered into an agreement with Fondazzjoni Patrimonju Malti to transform their old headquarters into a state-of-the-art gallery which would house the Victor Pasmore collection. The gallery cares for a permanent collection of Pasmore’s work, and will also have an active programme of temporary exhibitions showcasing the work of Malta’s most significant 20th-century artists. Ultimately, the Gallery aims to research, promote and display the important cultural legacy that Pasmore had on Malta along with that of his Maltese contemporaries.
The space will open soon, with its first exhibition titled IN SEARCH OF LINE.
