EDMUND GILL Born in Barbados in 1935 Edmund Gill migrated to London in 1956. He became active in the Caribbean Artists Movement and within that group was able to develop as an artist. It was when he could paint as a Caribbean person that his art flourished. On his return to Barbados he painted prolifically, constantly experimenting stylistically. He spoke with a Caribbean voice and at the time he was most active in Barbados it is possible there was no great understanding and his work has been seriously underrated. #14, 1st Avenue, East Terrace Road, Wildey St Michael.
