About the Film | Caymanian Art – A New Frontier

This film is a documentary about the permanent art collection of the National Gallery of the Cayman Islands (NGCI), which makes up one part of Cayman’s National Collection of art. The film explores topics such as globilasation, conservation of cultural heritage and a growing collection of artwork “where yesterday meets today and seeks tomorrow”.
