This autumn the Garden Museum presents a major exhibition of the landscape and nature paintings and sculptures of Antiguan artist Francis Archibald Wentworth Walter (1926–2009), known as Frank Walter.

 

One of the most significant Caribbean visual artists of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, Artist, Gardener, Radical will delve into Walter’s prolific body of work exploring Antiguan plants and landscapes, environmentalism, Caribbean and Black identity, social justice and the complexity of nature.

 

With over 100 paintings and sculptures which have never been exhibited before, and a newly commissioned immersive set design, this exhibition will transport visitors to the warm climate of Walter’s ‘castle on a hill’ studio in coastal Antigua.
