VISUAL ARTS BARBADOS APRIL 2024

VISUAL ARTS BARBADOS

Thirteen years of the publication

All issues

https://issuu.com/corriescott

This is a completely free magazine created out of the need to inform so that we can get to exhibitions, artist talks, workshops and more, rather than hearing about events after they have taken place.

I encourage anyone with a visual arts event to get in contact with me at corriescott@gmail.com and I will add a free page for your exhibition, classes, workshops, talks etc.

Let’s get the arts out there!

Please, pass this magazine on to others and so help the creative side of Barbados get all the exposure possible.

The Barbados Arts Events page was created to promote the Visual Arts Events in Barbados and artists whether exhibiting here in island or overseas.

The focus is on the events for the fine arts, encompassing art, photography, sculpture and installations, gallery receptions, exhibitions, talks, interviews, workshops, publications, studios, residencies.

I will also post visual art collaborations with writers, theatre, dance, videos, music and creatives but it has to encompass the visual arts/artists to be posted on this page.

I started this page because I felt that the visual arts were not getting much needed exposure to expose the talent in Barbados and around the world. I wish I could encompass all the creative arts as there is so much happening on this tiny wonderful island of ours but I am a one woman band doing this free. Over the years this page has become a support for all creative events in Barbados and I was happy for this but realised that it was diluting the fine arts section which it is meant to focus on.

I need to bring the focus back in these group pages to the visual arts.

Thank you for understanding.

Daily opening times will be announced soon.

Congratulations to fine art photographer Hugh Walker who is exhibiting in the ‘Black & White’ show at the Praxis Gallery, USA.

March 16th to April 13th. Below is a link to the online gallery https://www.praxisphotocenter.org/praxis-2024/ International Juried Photography Exhibition

BLACK & WHITE

Opening reception: Sat. Mar 16, 6-8PM

Exhibition dates: Mar 16 - April 13, 2024

Juror: Elizabeth Flinsch

“More than half a century after the advent of color film, black and white & monochromatic photography continues to capture our collective imagination. Utilizing tone, contrast, texture and shape, monochromatic photography strips its subject to only the most essential visual elements; revealing a sense of soul, substance and meaning - separate from the shifting sentiments, symbolism and cultural associations of color imagery.

Praxis Gallery presents the submission of photographic works that demonstrate the fundamental qualities that make black & white and monochromatic photography an enduring, contemporary art form.”

“The Barbados National Art Gallery is pleased to share that two works from our collection by Stanley Greaves were selected for the exhibition “Surrealism and Us: Caribbean and African Diasporic Artists since 1940” currently on display at The Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth!

Repost @themodernfw

Organized by Curator María Elena Ortiz, “Surrealism and Us: Caribbean and African Diasporic Artists since 1940” is inspired by the history of Surrealism in the Caribbean with connections to notions of the Afrosurreal in the United States. Representing a global perspective, this exhibition is the first intergenerational show dedicated to Caribbean and African diasporic art presented at the Modern.

Inspired by the essay “1943: Surrealism and Us” by Suzanne Césaire, the presentation includes over 80 works from the 1940s to the present day, in a wide range of media such as painting, sculpture, drawing, video, and installation. Centered on the intersection of Caribbean aesthetics, Afrosurrealism, and Afrofuturism, “Surrealism and Us” explores how Caribbean and Black artists interpreted a modernist movement. Artworks, framed within a pre-existing history of Black resistance and creativity, illustrate how Caribbean and Black artists reinterpreted the European avant-garde for their own purposes.

Plan your visit to see “Surrealism and Us,” opening on March 10. Learn more about the exhibition and the more than 50 artists included:

https://www.clementfaria.com/books/Seashells_of_B arbados /

“Introducing the latest project from the Barbados

- Clement Irie

LOOKA: Dismantling the Colonial Gaze is a powerful collaboration between five women artists working primarily in photography –Risée Chaderton-Charles, Jalisa Marshall, Joy Maynard, Amber Newton and Kia Redman.

The artists invite us to reconsider the power dynamics at play in the production and circulation of images and offer alternative visual languages of the Caribbean that centre on Black agency and subjectivity. For more information, please contact Curator Natalie McGuire at info@barbmuse.org.bb or 1 (246) 538-0201.

Congratulations to artist Sheena Rose who will be exhibiting in a Solo Exhibition "2.8 of Difficulty" from March 23rd at Vins Gallery in Taipei, Taiwan.

“We are honored to announce that VINS Gallery will have @sheenaroseinc Sheena Rose's Solo Exhibition "2.8 of Difficulty" on March 23rd (Sat), 2024. This is Sheena's first solo exhibition in Taipei, Taiwan and Asia.

Sheena's painting style is characterized by flat coloring, bold patterns from the seventies and eighties, and vivid, comic-book-like palettes and vignettes. Her proud figures take up literal and figurative space, donning clothes, hair and confidence that commands attention. Situated in a myriad of contexts - the tropics, with horses, beautiful interiors, engaged in professional sports - they are symbolic celebrations of the artist's imagination and self-actualization. We are looking forward to seeing you at the gallery! More official news will be released, please stay tuned.

Email contact@vtsstoys.com for more preview info.

��EXTENDED! Until April 15th.

Susan Mains’ ‘The Land the Sea and the Hoi Polloi’. March 3 rd at The Gallery of Caribbean Art.

Exhibition ends March 30th.

New paintings by International artist Susan Mains.

For the love of Barbados, Grenada and the Caribbean. Exhibiting with the gallery since 2003.

“So where is Susan now? And what has she been painting.

Getting over the slowness of the pandemic has been hard on all of us. After all, we are not making bread. And we can’t eat our paintings or wear them.

However if we are talking about the therapy needed get through that difficult time, I think the artists were the luckiest of all.

Our usual is to be in the studio alone, working, meditating, correcting, and spilling paint. The difference was that we weren’t getting paid for our efforts, because we couldn’t invite someone over to see the work. So we didn’t get immediate feed back. We didn’t get that warm feeling when someone connects with you through your painting. We made plans, knowing they could be easily thrown out. One show I was organizing had three dates pushed back. Eventually it was exhibited, but neither the artist nor the curator got to go and see it. That’s not rewarding.

Surprisingly, we all kept busy. We all had hope in the future. We trusted that the path we follow will still have some good for us along the way. That’s the thing about artists, we live in a fool’s paradise. Happily.

This series is name “The land, the sea” and the hoi polloi”. The Hoi Polloi are the everyday common people. In our case, the sailors, the fishermen, the farmers, the vegetable sellers. The salt of the earth people who have always taken things in stride. We have Kick em Jenny, our local undersea volcano rumbling at the moment. No one is panicking. We will take it as it comes.When the volcano in St. Vincent blew, we saved the ash to make some multi media art.

This series of work is deceptively simple. You take a glance and you think you know. Its a boat. But did you realize the wooden boat is almost 100 years old. Built by hand, the hardwood sourced from local trees. The caulking between the planks has been artfully pounded in by the builder, who just wouldn’t trust that someone else would do a good enough job. The canvas sails are recycled over and over, mending the rips, and not easily discarded. The waterline is painted on by intuition, and when the boat is pulled into the water, the line hits the mark every time. I can only imagine that the boat builder feels that same sense of satisfaction that we artist feel when we complete that last stroke on the painting. Come what may we continue to paint. We like it. Ok, true confession. We love it.”

“Cynthia King is my model for my mouthpiece entitled 'Ageism'. Seasoned women are often discounted in the eyes of society, and this piece speaks out on this matter.

Aspects of nature were used for this beautiful piece of art couture.The colors of the skirt reminds us that just as we admire the breathtaking beauty of a sunset, the senior woman can also be admired as she ages gracefully.

The rings of the tree increases with age, but yet it stands majestically with its branches outstretched. The circular pieces of wood that were used in the intricate appliqué of the bodice reminds us that all seasons of the life of the woman should be embraced and that the woman in all seasons should own her space.

The dramatic collar was made from the pods of the woman's tongue tree which contains seeds that rattle as the winds blow.This is symbolic of the aging woman who has stories to share, and should be heard.

Cynthia is the perfect model to wear this piece and to be my 10th personality in my Bajan Girls Rock series. She is 65 years old and is always happy to share her journey as a cancer survivor of 16 years. I love her strength, her beauty, her zest for life and her willingness to always try new things.

My ageism piece is currently on display as part of the 'Resilience' exhibition now on at the Queen's Park Gallery. What an honor it is to be included in exhibition dedicated to black female artists. The exhibition runs until March 20th so gather your friends and go see black excellence. It's the perfect way to close the curtains on International Women's Day. “

DP2 ART EXHIBITION pop up one day exhibition of Codrington School students art.

Sunday March 17th, 1pm-3pm.

At Four Square Rum Distillery, 4 Cross Roads, St Philip

“Congratulations to Mr. Zak and his DP2 students at Codrington High School for producing an impressive Visual Arts Exhibition at the Four Square Distillery this afternoon. Abraham, Declan, Elena, Savanah, Sierra and Zoey shared their creative journeys in a wonderful display of artistic skill & divergent thinking and personal interpretation. Today's exhibition was very well supported by family, friends, faculty and the greater Codrington community. A great afternoon!”

Annalee Davis on support in the arts and the Mellon Grant.

“This is no small thing and my gratitude is huge, as is my relief. It is truly an immense privilege to be able to continue my work at Fresh Milk Barbados alongside my comrade, Katherine Kennedy with whom I’ve been in the trenches since 2012. I could not do this work without her nor could we have continued without the vital support of Mellon’s grant. Hopefully, granting institutions inside the Caribbean will begin to understand, sooner rather than later, the need to support overhead expenses and offer unrestricted grants to those working in the sector. The plantation mentality around arts funding needs to stop. Stay tuned for more information as we are able to share more about our plans over the coming months and years. Thank you, thank you!”

“FreshMilkBarbados is so excited and grateful to share that we have been successfully awarded a grant for the 2024-2026 time-period by the US-based Mellon Foundation’s Arts and Culture programme in support of operating and programming expenses. ����������

This generous gift allows us to develop a re-granting programme that will put unrestricted funds directly into the hands of artists over the next three years, while continuing to contribute to the local contemporary visual art community and the region’s creative network, and seek new allies, partners and collaborators.”

https://m.facebook.com/AntilleanGalleryofArt/ “Hi! Welcome To Antillean Gallery of Art!

My name is Jeena Chatrani and I recently started Antillean Gallery with the intention of promoting and selling art from Caribbean artists online.

I'm an artist myself and I've found that the art scene in Barbados could greatly benefit from some online presence. For the last 6 years I've been a full time artist and have had to learn a lot about the business behind selling art. It's not easy to make it as an artist but it is so fulfilling. With Antillean Gallery of Art I hope

to help raise the standard of art and artists in

Barbados,

and eventually across the Caribbean.”

Our Mission

To fuel the development of culture through training, research and the creation of opportunities in cultural industries.

The Role of the NCF

The NCF’s two major roles are: developmental and commercial. In its developmental role, the Foundation uses culture as a tool for national development fostering and supporting the various art forms and new cultural products. In its commercial role, the Foundation is responsible for the promotion, production and hosting of cultural festivals and associated events that are considered economically viable or socially acceptable. A key part of this function now includes the responsibility for the staging and execution of major governmental and national events. In addition, as culture becomes more pivotal to national and international policy, the National Cultural Foundation continues to re-assess its responsibilities in light of all its functions.

FUNCTIONS of the NCF are:

To stimulate and facilitate the development of culture generally

To develop, maintain and manage theatres and other cultural facilities and equipment provided by Government

To organize cultural festivals

Assist persons interested in developing cultural expression.

OBJECTIVES of the NCF are:

To provide opportunities for Barbadian artists/artistes to showcase their talents with the end result being an increased demand for local work

To educate Barbadians concerning their heritage

To offer Barbadians and visitors alike a high quality product that informs, educates and entertains

To equip our cultural workforce with technological skills and training to excel in their particular art forms

To strengthen the local cultural product and in the process increase profits to the shareholders

To create high quality products that will be competitive on the local, regional and international markets

To maximize the role of the cultural sector in the tourism industry

Featuring artists Frank Cossey, Trudi Johnson, Hilary Armstrong, Clermont Mapp, Nancy Cole-O'Geest, Keisha Hinds, Joshua Simpson, Claire EvansonCeppi, Keren Evanson.

“Somewhere, amid the darkness, a painter measures a blank canvas, a poet tests a line aloud, a songwriter brings a melody into tune. Art inspires, provokes thought, reflects beauty and pain. I seek it out even more in these times. And in so doing, I find hope in the human spirit.”
