National Gallery of the Cayman Islands
View all (4)
Established in 1996, the National Gallery of the Cayman Islands (NGCI) is a vibrant arts organisation. The 9,000sq ft gallery is home to a growing National Collection of significant Caymanian works of art and hosts eight major exhibitions annually.
The NGCI National Collection
Loosely
assembled by decade, the collection traces a
historical and stylistic journey. Starting with the
visionary markings of Miss Lassie, to the early work
of realist painters who sought to capture “the
islands time forgot”, on to the early 1990s when
local art was influenced by the changing realities
of the time and through to the multi-disciplinary
contemporary art currently being created. These
works tell the story of Caymanian art and provide
the visual record of a growing country.
Temporary Exhibitions
NGCI hosts up to eight
temporary exhibitions a year, including group
shows, international exhibitions and works by
established artists.
