I must apologise for the minimal activity readers. My internet has been acting up and I havent been able to put up any posts that include images. I wanted to share some of my favourite paintings from this auction so I didnt want to put up just text. The following post is 2 days old but here you go nontheless:
Ok I've literally just arrived back in Lagos and this is why I loveeee this city! Its all already jumping at me!!! I can see it everywhere, I cant escape the art and creativity even if I tried... Good News!
The Golden Jubilee Auction 2010 is an art auction organised by and holding at TERRA KULTURE on APRIL, 24TH 2010 at 4PM. It is being organised to celebrate Nigeria's Independence anniversary so you might know it know it as the "Waiting for Independence auction". There are about 100 works of art on action including paintings, carvings and other antiquities.
There will be a wide range of works on auction from varied artists including Bruce Onobrakpeya, Jimoh Buraimoh, Tola Wewe, Kolade Oshinowo, Rom Isichei and many more. I have had a look at the catalogue and I guarantee you this will be eye candy!! The catalogue itself is so evocative, I cannot imagine what some of the paintings will look like in actuality.
I have scanned pictures of some of the paintings in the catalogue. What do you think? Will you be attending?
