Art historian Erica Moiah James will discuss the art of the Caribbean at an upcoming, free lecture at the Saint Louis Art Museum.
James’s lecture is drawn from preliminary research for a new book entitled Historicizing the Global in Caribbean Art and Visual Culture. The book offers a new approach to the concepts of globalization and global culture in the Americas through a series of works created over a 500-year span on the island of Hispaniola.
