The former Pan Museum, Trinidad
What constitutes a gallery or museum space? Is it the white walls? The empty converted space? Or the love of one's work? All of this is prevalent in the choices made by folk artist Joseph Charles who decided to do just that. Mr. Joseph has found a house with white walls and has called the space The Pan Museum. His work was first featured at the National Museum a few years ago with a colour catalogue. Not satisfied with the response to his work, Mr. Joseph decided to do something more. It was here that the museum came into being. Starting anything as serious as a gallery requires a great deal of planning, and Mr. Joesph has attempted to show a chronology of Pan history, using his work as the narrative. He also includes audio of famous and familiar calypso's to go along with the images, as well as artifacts on many of the folk stories about Pan and Pan life.
