New course at the V&A on Visualising Evolving Caribbean Identities

I see there is a new on-line course at the V&A starting in February

Join us as we explore the changing face of the Caribbean through the eyes of its artists. We will start our journey in the post-independence period in the 1960s and, using the V&A’s collections for inspiration, we will broker a dialogue between curators and artists from the UK and the Caribbean. Our six-week survey will investigate the work of Caribbean artists within the V&A collection, including Aubrey Williams, Sir Frank Bowling, Winston Branch, Peter Minshall, and Althea McNish, alongside other key figures such as Richard Rawlins, Sheena Rose, Barrington Watson, Christopher Cozier and Jasmine Thomas-Girvan. Visual artists who practise in the Caribbean often grapple with an intractable dichotomy – should they engage with the undeniable natural beauty of the region, or turn away to face the thornier issues of evolving identities in a post-colonial space?

That sounds amazing!
I'd love to take part in that, as a treat to myself.
It's been a tough year, and a bit of joyfulness to look forward to, sounds just the thing!
