Well-known Bahamian artist Antonius Roberts is one of two artists chosen to represent The Bahamas at the Museum of the Americas’ Caribbean Realities II exhibition.
The exhibition of Caribbean art opens Thursday, June 26th at the Market Pavilion Hotel in Charleston, South Carolina, where Roberts’ sculpture “Awakening” will be on display. Artist Max Taylor is also representing The Bahamas with a wood-cut piece.
The four-day Caribbean Realities II Festival commemorates the many “Roots and Routes” of the regions’ forefathers and the long tradition of connections between the Caribbean and Charleston, South Carolina. It is also an extension of the Museum of the Americas’ mission “to connect people of the Western Hemisphere by searching for our roots, exploring our past, celebrating our diverse cultures and promoting our common future”, according to a press release.
