Visit Joie de Vivre, an exhibition of paintings and works on paper by Paul Dash. Dash, a key figure in the Caribbean Artists Movement, explores themes of identity, jazz-like improvisation, and his African Caribbean roots in his latest works. 

Drawing from his experiences as a Windrush-era artist, Dash’s pieces reflect his personal journey and a deep connection to both African Diaspora art and the complexities of representation. 

The exhibition offers a unique chance to view works that blend abstraction with vivid explorations of identity, and visitors are invited to experience Dash’s improvisational approach that mirrors the spirit of jazz. Joie de Vivre highlights Dash’s commitment to creating art that is spontaneous, deeply personal, and rooted in African Caribbean identity.
