The Triangle International Artists workshops are part of a wider picture of workshops and residencies leading to an exchange of ideas and practice between artists. Triangle Arts Trust acts as a facilitator in this worldwide artist run enterprise. The Workshops are not so much part of an organisation, as a movement that depends on a huge amount of voluntary effort by the participating artists themselves. Triangle Workshops provide a counter balance to the prevailing emphasis in the western art world on product and marketing by providing a space where creativity and process can develop.
Over 2000 practising artists have attended Triangle Workshops over the past 18 years.
Caribbean Contemporary Arts (CCA) was established to provide a space and structure in response to the social, political and cultural concerns of the many peoples who comprise the Caribbean Basin. The complex task of providing a medium for expression to a population that traces its influences to a number of continents, cultures, traditions and histories is important, both regionally and internationally. We believe that it is necessary for these new expressions of acculturation to first find recognition from the 'inside'.
CCA is an international arts organisation that works with contemporary visual artists, curators, writers, historians and art educators from the Caribbean and the Caribbean Diaspora to exhibit, publish and document our region's art practice, influences and ideas.
CCA maintains an active interest in work, which investigates and includes a diversity of subjects within contemporary art practice, art theory, art history and art criticism.
Mission
CCA is an autonomous regional developmental arts organisation which initiates exchanges and programmes that bridge the many island states and the Latin American rim that make up the Caribbean region. These exchanges reinforce the unique culture of the region as our most under utilised developmental tool.
