Following is an excerpt from an article by the Gleaner’s Georgia Hemmings, on the first solo exhibition of Anthea McGibbon.
“VERY SUCCESSFUL” is how photographer and graphic designer, Anthea McGibbon, describes her first solo exhibition, held recently in the United States (U.S.).
The three-day show was held from November 14-17, at the First African Baptist Church in Philadelphia, the first American city. The First African Baptist Church this year celebrated its centennial and the exhibition provided a link between its African and Caribbean roots.
The exhibition, titled Caradise – Caribbean Paradise of Beauty, featured images captured in Jamaica, St. Lucia and Barbados. The works included portraiture, still lifes, community activities and nature scenes.
Ms. McGibbon said the photographs were taken during work-related and vacation travels to the U.S., the Caribbean, Latin America and South Korea from as far back as 1992.
