Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM) is presenting The Other Side of Now: Foresight in Contemporary Caribbean Art, a thematic group show that asks about the future of the Caribbean region, featuring 14 artists from the region and its diaspora: Deborah Anzinger, Charles Campbell, Andrea Chung, Hulda Guzman, Deborah Jack, Louisa Marajo, Manuel Mathieu, Alicia Milne, Lavar Munroe, Angel Otero, Sheena Rose, Jamilah Sabur, Nyugen Smith, and Cristina Tufiño. The Other Side of Now is on view from July 18, 2019 through June 7, 2020. This exhibition is co-curated by María Elena Ortiz, PAMM Associate Curator, and Dr. Marsha Peare, Cultural Theorist based in the University of the West Indies, St. Augustine Campus in Trinidad. In contemporary art, the Caribbean is often seen through the lens of its traumatic, colonial past and socioeconomic problems that linger in the present. The Other Side of Now seeks to think beyond narratives of catastrophe
