About Biennial Art Exhibition

The National Gallery of Jamaica opened the Jamaica Biennial toward the finish of February, with an emphasis on neighborhood and Caribbean specialists. The occasion, which initially occurred in 1977, has been assembled highlighting just Jamaican craftsmen and craftsmen from the Jamaican Diaspora, with some uncommon visitors from different parts of the Caribbean included by welcome. Occurring in Kingston, settings for the biennial will be the National Gallery, which sits on the waterfront; the National Gallery West, its branch in Montego Bay; and the three-story chateau and legacy site, Devon House.

The presentation keeps running from February 28 to May 28 of this current year, and will incorporate 35 welcomed Jamaican craftsmen including Margaret Chen and David Boxer; 49 chose Jamaican craftsmen including Jenny Gordon, Kimani Beckford, and The Girl and the Magpie; and 7 exceptional tasks authorized from specialists from the Caribbean or with Caribbean legacy, including Andrea Chung and Marcel Pinas. Kingston-based workmanship student of history and caretaker Dr. Veerle Poupeye is the leader of the curatorial group for the show. "Part invitational and part juried, the Biennial is an extremely comprehensive presentation which brings into exchange work in customary and new media and built up and developing craftsmen from Maria Magdelena Campos-Pons' appearance to ongoing craftsmanship school graduates, for example, Kelly-Ann Lindo," said Dr. Poupeye in an announcement.
