Welcome to Barbados Monthly Arts Events 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 you.

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 one called ‘still lives at a picnic’ (table with food and rising steam kkk figure) is reflections on the fact that they used to sometimes have picnics whilst lynching

ONEKA SMALL I am really hoping that legalising marijuana falls under the portfolio of the Honourable Prime Minister, Ms. Mia Mottley, as an economic affair, investment or a finance instrument - It's a multi billion dollar industry! and we need to dig ourselves out of a very deep hole- but if it doesn't, can someone tell me which Minister is responsible?

The set up of a National Gallery and a lot of others I can think of should also be looked at as econ, finance and investment #justsaying #tolongmypeoplebeensuffering #sugarandtourismwereneverours #prosperityforall #toomanymadecriminalsforgodsgift

THE CHANGING FACE OF BARBADIAN LANDSCAPES Curated by Allison Callender Temporary exhibition, open now through until April 4 th- June 4th 2018 A variety of prints and paintings from the Barbados Museum and Historical Society's fine art collection dating back to the 1830s (most which have never been exhibited) are used in the exhibition The Changing Face of Barbadian Landscapes to showcase the changing scenes of Barbados. Using the term "landscape" loosely, the works on display also feature aspects of Barbadian seascape and include landscapes with structures in a range of media including watercolour, oils and prints.

BRADLEY BENSKIN VISITS ANDROMEDA GARDENS About me and my photography: As a young boy growing up in the parish of St. Thomas I have always had a love for nature and plant life in particular. I received some training in my earlier years in photography, digital editing and imaging and after a brief sojourn this love for photography was I rekindled when I borrowed my wife’s small Canon Powershot point and shoot camera to document a private event.

My grew even more when she gifted me my first Nikon camera – the Cool Pix L840 – after she grew tired of me borrowing hers. Since then I have developed a fondness for landscapes, seascapes, sunsets, nature and things Barbadiana. This has resulted in the formation of Green Grasshopper Digital Media and the soon to be launched “Thru The Lens of A Bajan”.

I had always been curious about the Andromeda Gardens. It held some mystery and I desired to know what floral and faunal treasures lay beyond the entrance. On a chance meeting with Sharon Cooke, the manager of the garden, provided me with that opportunity and I was invited to tour the garden and to observe the improvements to the garden. I was indeed amazed at what I found. The initial visit spawned three others and the result was the “Andromeda Garden Series”.

I would encourage all Barbadians and visitors alike to take a tour of the Andromeda Gardens and be mesmerized much as I was. greengrasshopperdigitalmedia@gmail.com intagram green_grasshopper_digital https://www.facebook.com/greengrasshopperdigitalmedia/

RHOHAN BULLEN Concept: My work addresses prevalent notions of physical perfection in Caribbean society. By exaggerating and highlighting what is perceived as ‘imperfection’, I seek to challenge male and female stereotypes through humor and irony. Encouraging self-acceptance and –love, the works invite viewers to reconsider assumptions about gender, beauty and physicality, as well as conventional boundaries between public and personal spaces.

RONALD WILLIAMS’ FRESH MILK RESIDENCY – WEEK 4 BLOG POST June 4th 2018 https://freshmilkbarbados.com/2018/06/04/r onald-williams-fresh-milk-residency-week4-blog-post/ Barbadian artist Ronald Williams, the recipient of the 2018 Fresh Milk ‘My Time’ Local Artist Residency, shares his final blog post. Ronald describes the last stretch of his residency as “bittersweet” for a number of reasons. Taking part in the second session of fellow resident artist Daisy Diamond‘s reading group yielded fruitful discussions, but was coupled with having to bid her farewell shortly after. Ronald also felt a renewed sense of clarity and conviction about the work he has been creating, but this was catalyzed by an unfortunate event that is telling of serious societal issues in Barbados

NYUGEN SMITH June 20 at 6:30 pm at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, New York Public Library Consecrating the Cosmos: Masquerade, Performance and Spirituality in Carnival Traditions As many of you know, I’ve been traveling throughout the Caribbean and West Africa during the last year and a half for research that informs my interdisciplinary practice. I am so excited to be in conversation with the brilliant, D. Denenge Duyst-Akpem from whom I’ve learned so much during my time in the SAIC Low-Residency MFA Program and who continues to be a wonderful mentor as I navigate this path. Thank you Novella Ford for this platform and your interest in my work. . . .

June is Caribbean Heritage Month. Join us for an evening with Nyugen E. Smith and D. Denenge Duyst-Akpem in conversation on masquerade, performance and spirituality in Carnival traditions in the African Diaspora through the lens of Carnival in Trinidad and Tobago. They will also discuss how these traditions have informed Nyugen's work and the work of other artists in the Diaspora. The program will begin with a collaborative performance activation by Smith and Duyst-Akpem atop of Rivers, Houston Conwill’s site-specific art installation that honors Langston Hughes and Arturo A. Schomburg with a cosmogram inspired by Hughes’s poem “The Negro Speaks of Rivers.”

Anderson M. Pilgrim of CAFA. "From March 7-11, 2018, CaFA Fair Barbados returned to the recently renamed Courtney Blackman Grand Salle Gallery & Annex, Tom Adams Financial Center, Spry Street, Bridgetown, Barbados, to a fantastic reception from a receptive and energetic audience.
