SUMMARY:Chapter Two: FESTAC '77 Beyond Nostalgia [A Salon Conversation]
DESCRIPTION:Nahous and Carté Lagos present Chapter Two of the Carté Salon series.\nThis salon returns to FESTAC ’77\, one of the most ambitious cultural gatherings in African history. While the first chapter examined the ideological background and ambitions that shaped the festival\, this conversation turns to what followed.\nTogether we will consider the aftermath of FESTAC ’77: the structures that carried it\, the institutions it was expected to sustain\, and the question of what remained once the moment of spectacle had passed.\nThrough archival material\, film excerpts\, and guided discussion\, the salon invites participants to reflect on cultural ambition\, memory\, and continuity in Nigeria.\nThe conversation takes place at the Old Federal Palace at Nahous.\n\nTickets [here]. \nDetails by @carte.lagos and @thenahous. \n*** \nDisclaimer: Unless explicitly stated\, ArtGuideAfrica does not own\, endorse and is not affiliated with any event/organisation included on this event calendar.

DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to present “What Shaped Us Does Not Disappear\,” a solo exhibition by German-Nigerian artist Joke Amusan\, opening on Sunday\, March 8 at 2 PM \nThe works inhabit space like bodies in a gentle conversation\, revealing the bonds that hold us.

SUMMARY:Ilé Àdúà; The Sacred Codes [Exhibition]
DESCRIPTION:Nomadic Art Gallery presents Ilé Àdúà; The Sacred Codes\, a duo exhibition by Faith Omole (@faithomole_m) and Paul Ayihawu (@ayihawu02)\, running from 06 – 28 March\, 2026. \nThis exhibition reimagines prayer as a universal human practice\, not just a singular religious act\, but a spectrum of intentional actions through which people seek alignment\, clarity\, and transformation. Expanding beyond devotion\, prayer unfolds here through meditation\, manifestation\, silence\, visualization\, and embodied attention\, becoming a technology of presence that shapes both inner and outer realities. \nRooted in the living metaphysical language of Nsịbịdị\, the exhibition transforms visual codes into a connective system that translates invisible states of consciousness into form\, positioning art itself as an active form of prayer. \nThrough Faith Omole’s focus on prayer as action and Paul Ayihawu’s exploration of prayer as inner state\, the exhibition creates an immersive space where ritual\, stillness\, intention\, and awareness converge. \n📅 Opening Reception: 3:00 PM\, Friday\, March 6\, 2026\n📍 Venue: Nomadic Art Gallery\, 22 Adetokunbo Ademola Street\, Victoria Island\, Lagos\n🗓️ On view through: March 28\, 2026 [Gallery is closed on Sundays] \nEvent Details by @nomadic.ag. \n*** \nDisclaimer: Unless explicitly stated\, ArtGuideAfrica does not own\, endorse and is not affiliated with any event/organisation included on this event calendar.

SUMMARY:Inclusivity: Widening the Frame [+234 Art Fair 2026]
DESCRIPTION:The 2026 edition of +234 Art Fair is guided by the theme Inclusivity— a commitment to seeing more\, not just showing more. Inclusivity is not about adding new doors\, but about removing the walls that quietly shape who gets seen. Every art scene is shaped by choices that reflect access and privilege just as much as talent. This year\, the fair widens the frame\, moving beyond familiar narratives to embrace the breadth of creative expression across Nigeria. Through collaborations with universities\, art schools\, NGOs\, and cultural custodians\, +234 Art Fair brings overlooked voices into focus. We have been across the nation searching for promising new artists and this year\, we are bringing the unseen into view. \n*REGISTRATION REQUIRED* \nDetails by @plus234art. \n*** \nDisclaimer: Unless explicitly stated\, ArtGuideAfrica does not own\, endorse and is not affiliated with any event/organisation included on this event calendar.

SUMMARY:Where\, Then\, Does Memory Reside?
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition asks a simple question: where does memory live?\nWe often think of memory as something held in the mind But these works suggest otherwise. They propose that memory can live in the body\, in our skin\, our posture\, repetition and in silence. \nWhere\, then\, does memory reside?\nPerhaps closer than we think. \nRead more on art.creath.io \nExhibiting Artists \n1.
