Writer and photographer Caleb Azumah Nelson visits Bristol Museum & Art Gallery with his partner, theatre-maker and poet Esme Allman. Together they encounter art that speaks to Bristol’s radical history, explore an exhibition of work by one of their favourite artists, Ghanaian photographer James Barnor, and discover how a project led by the museum’s Young Collective has brought fresh new perspectives to the museum’s collection.
Notes:
The exhibition James Barnor: Ghanaian Modernist is at Bristol Museum & Art Gallery until 31 October 2021.
