		<title>National Gallery of Jamaica&#8217;s Tribute to Nettleford</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;&#8230; probably the most reassuring thing about the best among [intuitive] artists is that [their art] is achieved with freedom from demagoguery and without the crassness of social realism.

Sixty years of forgotten treasures
Britain is to get a Black Theatre Archive. Playwright Kwame Kwei-Armah relives his role in its creation
