We are tracing how the lives of
Black people living in London between the wars were represented in
artwork. Join us to explore the lives of artists and models of
African and Asian heritage between 1919 and 1939. To help us with our
research project, Drawing over the Colour Line, we'd love you to
bring any paintings, photos, sculptures, prints or drawings that you
have on this theme. We will also have a small photographic studio
area where we can take digital photographs of your artwork to include
on our image database.
Drop in to the Camden Local Studies and
Archives Centre where expert researchers from UCL's Equiano Centre
will chat with you about your art works and photographs. Talk to
expert archivists and curators from Camden Archives and UCL to
discover how to care for your photos, letters and paintings, and find
out more about how they fit into our shared history.
