About the artwork
In Talking Music, Dash presents a domestic scene. Painted in bright colours, a group sit around two musicians in the centre with guitars, clearly talking. The arrangement of figures suggests that perhaps this group is a family, seated in front of the fireplace on sofas, chairs and the floor. The attentiveness of the listeners suggests an animated conversation.

ABOUT THE ARTIST

Paul Dash (born 1946) is a Barbados-born artist and writer. Dash moved to Britain aged 11, and went on to study fine art at Chelsea School of Art. He was part of the Caribbean Artists Movement in 1969, and taught in secondary schools and later Goldsmiths College. His figurative work often explores Caribbean cultural events and experiences, which was a way of exploring his heritage and identity living and working in Britain, where he faced discrimination in both his life and work. He has returned to full time practice since his retirement in 2011.

I've made a mistake, can I amend my order?

The best thing to do is email us as soon as possible at shop@tate.org.uk or call us on +44 (0)207 887 8888 with your order number, ideally within 24 hours. Please note that as custom prints are made to order, if production has already started, we won’t be able to make any amendments to the print itself, but we can change your delivery name and address if the order has not been dispatched yet.

I've changed my mind, can I cancel my order?

As custom prints are made to order, unfortunately you can’t cancel your order after production has started (typically within 24 hours). If you get in touch with us within 24 hours, our team will check on the status of your order and do whatever they can to help you out. 

Can I return my print?

Because our prints and frames are made to order, custom prints can only be returned if they’re faulty or we’ve made a mistake. If this is the case, please contact us straight away with details and images of the problem, so we can arrange for a refund or replacement for you. You can find further information regarding refunds and returns here.
