Anew: to the future, via the past / Alex Farquharson -- Caribbean movements in Britain / David A. Bailey -- Stuart Hall's vernacular modernism / David Scott -- Nature erupts into orchestras of nemesis: the ecological imaginary of the Caribbean / Giulia Smith -- Colour bars and bass cultures, dub aesthetics and Cockney translations: music in the Creole history of Black life in Britain / Paul Gilroy -- Movement of people / a rhythm sequence by Grace Wales Bonner -- Comin rite thru: masquerade and marches, resistance and revolution / Allison Thompson -- Home and away: odysseys, entanglements and acts of resistance / Gilane Tawadros -- Hostile environments and Black geographies / Daniella Rose King "This fascinating exhibition book traces the connection between Britain and the Caribbean in the visual arts from the 1950s to today, a social and cultural history more often told through literature or popular music. It celebrates how people from the Caribbean have forged new communities and identities in post-war Britain - and in doing so have transformed British culture and society. ...Arranged chronologically, it sheds light on a number of themes such as Caribbean modernism, social and political struggles, subculture and its policing, the front room as a private and public space, after-images of slavery and the Middle Passage, and syncretic and creolised metaphor and allegory (carnival, folklore, new world religions). Readers will find themselves charting a course between two worlds: London or other urban localities in the UK and images of formerly British Caribbean nations.
