Year: 2011

The Retrospective Exhibition “Kendal Hanna – Happy Birthday to Me” officially opened on Friday, July 15, 2011 at the National Art Gallery of The Bahamas on West Hill Street and will be on display until the end of 2011.

To Hanna, the experience is somewhat surreal, but brings him great joy, for being underappreciated for so long led him to believe his work would never be presented in this way, let alone that his story, forgotten even by his own troubled mind, would never be told.

For Hanna, art has been both a failsafe friend and a savior in a long life of psychological and personal struggle. It’s a story that’s been reflected in his pieces in the only way he knows how — through abstract expressionism.

“Now, I have come to the belief that I was born to be an artist,” he says.

“Kendal Hanna: Happy Birthday to Me” opens on Friday, July 15th at the National Art Gallery of the Bahamas.
