Tribute to Kamau is the theme of the annual exhibition co-hosted by the National Art Gallery Committee and the National Cultural Foundation opening Sunday May 16th at the Queens Park Gallery in Barbados.
This exhibition is in celebration of the 80th birthday of our unofficial Poet Laureate Kamau Brathwaite. It is part of the Heritage month celebrations of the National Cultural Foundation and the National Art Gallery Committee.
The exhibition is a group show with work by some of Barbados leading artists.
The Curator is Janice Whittle.
The Artists were invited to produce a work of Art which should reflect an understanding of the themes and approach to writing that is evidenced in Kamau Brathwaite's work. They have each produced something extraordinary to communicate to the viewer how the work and life of Kamau Brathwaite speaks to them.
