    Leon Wainwright, ‘Aubrey Williams: Atlantic Fire’, in Reyahn King ed., 2010 Aubrey Williams: Atlantic Fire National Museums Liverpool and October Gallery, London, pp. 46-55. ISBN: 978-1-899542-30-7. Exhibition catalogue essay. Republished here with permission of the Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool and The October Gallery, London. http://oro.open.ac.uk/29004/ AUBREY WILLIAMS: ATLANTIC FIRE By Leon Wainwright Click here to view Aubrey Williams’ artist page at the October Gallery with images of works. The paintings of Aubrey Williams are islands of fire that have scorched their way across a range of different stories of art. One story is about the evolution of British painting in the twentieth century. Another is a story about the way in which Caribbean people have struggled and pressed for their freedom and sparked with modern creativity. Yet another story has passages on Britain and Guyana, Jamaica, South America, and the United States, pulling in all those settings around the Atlantic where Aubrey Williams lived and worked, and where he exhibited his art. It is a story about how Williams had an ability to be in several places at once in the history of art. Williams’ legacy is framed within a brilliant composite of narratives; and there his art works have remained, smouldering continually, their heat slowly building. His life story and his art cannot be located in a simple geography, either physical or cultural. Williams painted with fire, and the path that he cut is a hard one to follow. First, Williams was a full and energetic participant in the London art world of the post-war years.

  • Black British Art History Some Considerations
    New Directions in Black British Art History Some Considerations Eddie Chambers ime was, or at least time might have been, when the writing or assembling of black British art histories was a relatively uncom- Tplicated matter. Historically (and we are now per- haps able to speak of such a thing), the curating or creating of black British art histories were for the most part centered on correcting or addressing the systemic absences of such artists. This making vis- ible of marginalized, excluded, or not widely known histories was what characterized the first substantial attempt at chronicling a black British history: the 1989–90 exhibition The Other Story: Asian, African, and Caribbean Artists in Post-War Britain.1 Given the historical tenuousness of black artists in British art history, this endeavor was a landmark exhibi- tion, conceived and curated by Rasheed Araeen and organized by Hayward Gallery and Southbank Centre, London. Araeen also did pretty much all of the catalogue’s heavy lifting, providing its major chapters. A measure of the importance of The Other Story can be gauged if and when we consider that, Journal of Contemporary African Art • 45 • November 2019 8 • Nka DOI 10.1215/10757163-7916820 © 2019 by Nka Publications Downloaded from http://read.dukeupress.edu/nka/article-pdf/2019/45/8/710839/20190008.pdf by guest on 26 September 2021 Catalogue cover for the exhibition Transforming the Crown: African, Asian, and Caribbean Artists in Britain 1966–1996, presented by the Caribbean Cultural Center African Diaspora Institute, New York, and shown across three venues between October 14, 1997, and March 15 1998: Studio Museum in Harlem, Bronx Museum of the Arts, and Caribbean Cultural Center African Diaspora Institute.

There is also growing evidence in the UK that those with long term health conditions have an increased risk of being food insecure. While international evidence indicates that food insecurity adversely affects individual’s health condition management capability, little is known about how those so affected manage their condition(s) in this context. An investigation of lived experience of health condition management was undertaken with food insecure people living in north east Scotland. The study aimed to explore the challenges facing food insecure people in terms of, i.

I will be forever grateful for their unending support and critical eye on this work, and any errors in this work are entirely my own. I also owe a huge debt of gratitude to ‘Transmission’: Ego Ahaiwe Sowinski, Etienne Joseph, Nathan Richards and especially Kelly Foster. I can’t express how much you all have been a source of incredible support, knowledge and source of inspiration. This thesis would not exist without the participants from Black Cultural Archives, George Padmore Institute and those associated with the Huntley Collection at London Metropolitan Archives. Thank you for your patience and for taking time to help me with this work. My gratitude also goes to those named and unnamed who have undertaken the often-thankless task of keeping these organisations and associated networks going, and for creating the spaces that makes this thesis possible.

  • Evolution of Accounting Standards in Nigeria: a Historical Perspective
    International Journal of Advanced Academic Research | Social & Management Sciences | ISSN: 2488-9849 Vol. 2, Issue 8 (August 2016) EVOLUTION OF ACCOUNTING STANDARDS IN NIGERIA: A HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE JAYEOBA OLAJUMOKE OLAMIDE1 & AJIBADE, AYODEJI TEMITOPE2 1&2Department of Accounting, Babcock University, Nigeria. [email protected] ABSTRACT This study explored the history of accounting and evolution of accounting standard in Nigeria in relation to the country’s adoption of the IFRS. The similarities and differences between the IFRS and the Nigerian local standard (SAS) were reviewed as well. The study was an exploratory research which made use of purely secondary data from extant literatures in the relevant area of interest; hence the explorative design method was adopted in conducting this research. It was observed that the IFRS is more robust and principle base, thus giving room for a sense of discretion on the part of preparers of financial statements. The study concludes by reiterating the importance of adopting IFRS which enables a country to speak a uniform accounting language as her other counterparts. KEYWORDS: Accounting, IFRS, SAS, History, Nigeria, Language 1. Introduction The story of the tower of Babel signified that anything can be achieved when there is uniformity in language. In this same vein, the evolution of accounting (seen as the language of business) strives towards “a uniform language” which is the adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards in many countries of the world. Regulation of accounting information is aimed at ensuring that users of financial statement receive a minimum amount of information that will enable them make meaningful decisions regarding their interest in a reporting entity.
