Inspired by Alejo Carpentier’s mytho-historical book, The Kingdom of this World (originally published in 1949), an international cohort of artists, each with ties to the Caribbean, responds to the innovative retelling of the extraordinary, true events of Black liberation, struggle, and spirituality in colonialism’s wake.

This exhibition was curated by Lesley A. Wolff, Assistant Professor, Art & Design, University of Tampa. This exhibition will be staged across two venues: the University Art Gallery (UAG) at Pitt and the Carlow University Art Gallery.
