An art fair featuring works of emerging and established artists such as, Adavize Jamiu Ibrahim, Luqman Olabode Onipede, Ndifreke James, Michael Olusanya Omole, Kelly Omoefe Ovwigho and Omodesola Fagbenle recently held in Lagos.
The show, with Freedom as theme, had on display, hyperrealistic sketches, oil on canvas, animation paintings on acrylic and a host of other works.
Also unforgettable is Kayode Famoye’s The Fulani. The work shows drummers in their glory, while Onipede tackles the theme of Freedom with a-24×51 inch oil on canvas painting that pays homage to the afrobeat legend, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti. Onipede sounds a Call of Freedom in a dazzling 24×48 inch oil on canvas creation, with a man playing his instrument. He plays with geometric shapes to create the character’s features.
A pen and paper sketch, transformed into a painting, as well as his love for warm colours, inspired the painting. Ndifreke’s art is so much fun to behold, and a sure Generation Z winner.
