Charles Zuill Art Books To Be Donated
Nearly 100 copies of Charles Zuill: Portals to Another Dimension will be donated to Bermuda schools, libraries, and care homes.
A spokesperson said, “Charles Zuill: Portals to Another Dimension will be distributed widely thanks to an anonymous donor and support from the Bermuda Arts Council.
“Almost 100 copies of the art book Charles Zuill: Portals to Another Dimension, recently published by local brand Black Pony Gallery & Publishing, will be donated to Bermuda’s Public School System [BPSS] arts educators, schools, libraries, and care home facilities, ensuring wider public access to one of the island’s most significant contemporary art publications.
“Charles Zuill: Portals to Another Dimension celebrates the work of Bermudian artist Charles Zuill, whose practice explores spirituality, abstraction, and the transformative power of visual art. The 120-page hardcover art book features 147 full-colour reproductions of Zuill’s works alongside critical essays offering insights into his artistic vision and lifelong engagement with creative expression.”
Lisa Howie and Dr. Shannon Rose with Charles Zuill: Portals to Another Dimension:
Lisa Howie, Founding Director of Black Pony Gallery & Publishing, said, “Art has the power to connect people across generations. By placing these books in schools, libraries, and care homes, we hope to encourage dialogue, reflection, and enjoyment of one of Bermuda’s talented visual artists who has made a significant impact on the cultural landscape of our island.”
The spokesperson said, “In addition, the book will take centre stage at the upcoming Teacher Professional Learning Day for BPSS Arts Educators on January 5 as Ms. Howie will lead a workshop called ‘Thinking History Through the Lens of Art,’ presented in collaboration with the Department of Education, National Museum of Bermuda, and Black Pony Gallery & Publishing.”
Dr. Shannon Rose, Education Officer for the Arts, said, “The upcoming interactive workshop will advance cross-curricular ties between literacy, contemporary art and Bermuda history while developing inquiry-based learning tools that teachers can use immediately in their classrooms.”
The spokesperson said, “Distribution of the book underscores the value of partnership between private donors, cultural organizations, and the arts community in making creative works accessible to all.
“The book is also for sale at local booksellers and online the gallery’s website at blackponygallery.com.
