Schliefer’s work in the National Gallery’s Annual and Biennial exhibitions

One of two paintings entered in the Jamaica Biennial 2014 by Schliefer, “Jamaican Theatre” comments forcefully on children’s exposure to adult sexual activity which seems to be everywhere – never mind the attempts of the conservative to “shield” children from such exposure by denying them proper sex education.

Schliefer’s work has been a constant in the National Gallery of Jamaica’s Annual and Biennial exhibitions, and in 2019 also the new Summer Exhibition. A selection of his entries is presented here.
