Petrona Morrison, The transnational Caribbean: Construct or reality?

The transnational Caribbean: Construct or reality? Transnationalism, as a product and process of globalization, has been articulated as a theoretical frame within which cultural production can be located, within and outside of the Caribbean. The reality of the economic, cultural and social impact of globalization is without dispute, and can be seen daily in the manifestations of popular culture in the Caribbean, reflecting some degree of hybridity and creolisation.

Charles Campbell, Creative Contingencies

Charles Campbell will examine the notion of sustainable artistic production through the lens of his own practice. Looking specifically at his Transporter Project, Campbell explores the various contingencies as play in its making. Begun partly in response to a conference on human trafficking, the Transporter Project pulls together numerous threads from Campbell’s wider art practice, which looks at the interplay between heavily loaded political narratives and utopian ideals, painting, sculpture and performance, and personal and public spaces.

Charl Landvreugd, Notes on continental Afro-European aesthetics and sensibilities

Notes on continental Afro-European aesthetics and sensibilities The idea of a separate category for continental aesthetics and sensibilities among Afro-European subjects is fairly new in contrast to other diaspora aesthetics. Developing this concept in the visual arts is helped by using tools from English and French-speaking discourses; at the same time, however, such tools need careful consideration before being applied because of differences within the regions of Europe.

Timed out is a pioneering study of modern and contemporary art in the aftermath of empire. It addresses the current ‘global turn’ in the study of art by way of the transnational Caribbean, offering an in-depth account of its integral role in histories of art in the Atlantic world. The book looks at why art of the Anglophone Caribbean and its diaspora has been placed not only ‘outside’ but ‘behind’ more familiar and dominant art canons, and how the politics of space and time can be engaged in new ways to rethink the global geography of art.
