From the Caribbean to Coventry (1 Viewer)

[Legia Sky Blue]

Rather apt timing with all that Kasey Palmer has had to face last week. Looks like an interesting exhibition to go to for anyone in London in the next month or so.

From the Caribbean to Coventry | Barbican

An exhibition for the fans by the fans going some way to explain not just what 2Tone is but why and how we got there.

Great but why is it in London?

Great but why is it in London?

g
Possibly because the Herbert Art Gallery and Museum will attract about a million visitors over a 4 year period, whereas the Barbican attracts about 1.5 million visitors per year. So the Barbican will reach a larger audience .

Sometimes these exhibitions after a run in London do go out to other cities in the country. Even if it has to be scaled down a bit, depending on the size of the exhibition?

Herbert Art Gallery relatively recently did a Two Tone exhibition and we have the Two Tone Museum. I don't know, but it is possible, some of the Barbican exhibition may have already been exhibited here?
