A to Z success with Indiegogo!

Our recently concluded crowdfunding campaign for A to Z of Caribbean Art has been a great success and brought us a tremendous boost as we move forward with work on the book.

Thank you so much to everyone who backed our campaign or shared our links or encouraged others to support. We really couldn’t have done it without you!

See Me Here reviewed in The CRB

See Me Here is reviewed by Nicole Smythe-Johnson in the September 2016 issue of The Caribbean Review of Books.

“I recommend regarding the volumes in this series as exhibitions, rather than as books. Yes, they function as books: they are portable documents of artwork of a certain type, from a certain region, in a certain time. However, they also make deliberate use of the logic of the art exhibition — the establishment of visual relationships, a focus on placement and space, etc. The series makes an argument — not as a literary text does, but as a visual one does. In this way, they are truly successful art-books, fusing the two media in the best possible way. To own a copy, then, is to have a portable exhibition, open for viewing the moment you part the pages.”   Read the full review here…
