505 _aThe Black Jacobins Season is an initiative of the Black Diaspora Visual Arts (BDVA) programme which began in 2007 as a strategic legacy of the Bicentenary of the Abolition of the Slave Trade commemorative year, led by the Barbados National Art Gallery Committee and the International Curators Forum- a UK based network set up to address emerging international issues and a range of themes related to contemporary curatorial practice. Barbadian artists Ras Akyem Ramsay, Ras Ishi Butcher, and Ewan Atkinson, as part of the first Caribbean Pavilion at the 2010 Liverpool Biennial have been making their own histories, not simply as artists, but as persons who have undertaken similar explorations in the relationship between consciousness and circumstances of Caribbean artists, particularly in the complex, contentious and convoluted context of the contemporary art world's 'inhabitation' of the West India Docks at Liverpool.
520 _aThe BDVA agenda is about identifying the Caribbean as a crossroads and the best centre for the redistribution of visual creative energy.
