CARIBBEAN DOORS by Corrie Scott www.corriescott.net “Many of these wooden houses are now lost to us and so I have tried to preserve them visually so that we may not forget the traditional architecture of our Caribbean. I love the worn, weathered and much fixed doors, windows and structures. These photographs were taken in Dominica between 2007 and 2009 while I stayed at a wonderful house called Ramelton in the rainforest. A stunningly beautiful island.

‘OUTTA ORDER’ Exhibition Patrick Foster & Rosemary Parkinson Opening reception Wed April 13th, 6pm-8pm Exhibition ends April 27th The goal for art: Art at the airport. Art in government offices. Art in Corporate Barbados. Art in all medical facilities. Art in the homes. Art in the streets. Art in the schools. Art everywhere. The power of art: With the US dollar devaluing (30% 'till now) art is the best investment, for it never devalues. Invest in Art.
ŠRosemary Parkinson
‘OUTTA ORDER’ Exhibition Patrick Foster & Rosemary Parkinson Wed April 13th- April 27th 2011 PATRICK FOSTER Actor/Director/Writer/Artist Patrick Foster has exhibited in Barbados, New York and Toronto - his works hang in discerning collector’s homes worldwide. His last exhibition was at Lancaster House. He believes “that our own, first hand, artistic experience and knowledge of ourselves and our history must be forged by us as Caribbean into a professional, recognized style and language that shows and speaks to the world … from our perspective.” Patrick Foster: patrickmichaelfoster@hotmail.com ROSEMARY PARKINSON Author/Artist Rosemary Parkinson, daughter of the late Barbadian artist Gordon Parkinson, has exhibited in Europe, England & the Caribbean, receiving several awards for same. “My art is usually based on tragedy or concepts of life with a sense of humour often imbedded within. Without art I am without.” Rosemary Parkinson: www.rosemary-parkinson.com Thanking sponsors: Card/Invitation design: sianindesing Card/Invitation printing & distribution: ACE CARDS - Curtis Greenidge Food: Lucky Horseshoe, IAmPureFoods, John Hazzard Drinks: Mount Gay Rum, Shalana's Natural Wines Flowers: Trevor Hunte and COW Williams Co.

“My intention is to show the jeweler’s art in true perspective,where the design and craftsmanship are to be value above material worth of the metal; where the real beauty lies in an aesthetic sensitivitythat is inherent in structures and materials chosen without real regard for monetary value. For me, it is an attempt to ensure their daring, non-conventional and 'spiritual' character! Brass and Copper are generic materials (base metals), and I have used design techniques to enhance the organic process of patina.As this process evolves, the object becomes more beautiful, naturally” Tiyi by Design Exclusive Hand-Crafted Jewelry By Ichia Tiyi

RAMBLING POETS AT CAFÉ CYBER Quenntis Ashby Margaret Callow Dawn Evans William Holt Zan McDowell Mary Linda Miller Ashen Venema This book is a collection of poems posted in cyberspace over eight months by Quenntis Ashby, Margaret Callow, Dawn Evans, William Holt, Zan McDowell, Mary Linda Miller and Ashen Venema (domiciled in Taiwan, England, South Africa, the USA and Barbados), all part of a unique poetic conversation on a writer’s website. The thread on which the poems were posted received over 26,000 views during its brief life, influencing the poets to publish this in order to make their poetry accessible to a wider audience. They may very well represent the root of a new imagistic movement within the global community – linked through technology where meaningful connections could be made, like-minded souls and friends-to-be, thousands of miles apart who had never met and probably would never meet, would move each other to create a new kind of sentimentalism that crosses oceans and mountains and barriers of sex, race, nationality, culture, education and class to create a modern representation of a humane society which could only be made possible through utilization of this amazing resource we call the worldwide web.

Our publisher - Toute Bagai Publishing (TBP). TBP is the first publishing house in the Caribbean to produce internationally distributed magazines showcasing Caribbean living. TBP was formed in 1999 with signature magazine MACO Caribbean Living. The magazine was the first of its kind in concept, quality, and style, and is the first Caribbean-based magazine to be promoted by the international bookstore chain Barnes and Noble (also owner of the B. Dalton franchise). TBP went on to produce three new publications all in the space of one year in 2005; MACO Destinations, MACO Design Sourcebook, and MACO Caribbean Homes, a collector's edition of the magazine's best. The company also produced numerous guest publications for other companies with resounding success. Awards TBP and Colour Innovations were highly noted at the 2004 Premier Print Awards for MACO Magazine Volume 6, Issue 1, and received the Gold and Silver awards at the 31 st Annual International Gallery of Superb Printing Awards in 2005 for MACO Destinations, Volume 1 Issue 1, and MACO Magazine Volume 6 Issue 3, respectively. TBP has garnered worldwide renown for its low-key, yet distinctive style, attention to detail, and passion for the craft. After only nine years, the company has quickly become the symbol of Caribbean chic, and has committed itself through various sponsorships and partnerships with some of the Caribbean 's most influential companies such as Remy Martin, Virgin Atlantic Airways and Camper and Nicholsons.
