Om
Hurtige fakta: Grundlagt i 1974, huser denne institution over 2.000 kunstværker fra det 18. århundrede til i dag. Dens samling spænder fra koloniale portrætter til moderne installationer, og den er især kendt for verdens største samling af jamaicansk folkemaleri.
Højdepunkter: Det største trækplaster er rummet dedikeret til den jamaicanske "intuitive" kunstbevægelse, hvor værker af selvlærte kunstnere som Everald Brown og Malaika Brooks er udstillet. Hans malerier er så rå og udtryksfulde, at du bogstaveligt talt kan mærke energien fra Kingstons gader, mens du går gennem galleriet.
Insidertips
- Do not miss the room with works by Edna Manley, the Jamaican sculptor whose work has influenced generations of artists.
- Bring a camera, photography without flash is allowed in most rooms.
- If you are in a hurry, skip the temporary exhibitions and focus on the permanent collection upstairs.
- The afternoon heat can be quite strong, so bring a bottle of water.
