SUMMARY:Ayotunde Ojo: A Life of Its Own [Solo Exhibition]
DESCRIPTION:OPENING NEXT WEEK \nTiwani Contemporary is pleased to present a solo exhibition by Ayotunde Ojo\, ‘A Life Of Its Own’\, at its Lagos gallery. \nOjo presents his domestic interiors as living\, shifting spaces\, altered by light\, stillness and movement\, subtly capturing the temporal shifts that coexist within a shared space. \nThe exhibition reflects an awareness that life does not stand still. Relationships between lovers\, friends\, family and animals carry moments of closeness and potential friction. By layering multiple scenes together\, Ojo introduces a quiet tension into the compositions. The home\, perceived primarily as a site of stability\, can become a space that both shelters and mirrors the instabilities of the outside world. \nExhibition dates: 26 March – 27 June 2026 (Update! Now closing 16th May)\nOpening reception: Thursday\, 26 March 2026\, 6:00 – 10:00 pm \nDetails by @tiwanicontemporary. \n*** \nDisclaimer: Unless explicitly stated\, ArtGuideAfrica does not own\, endorse and is not affiliated with any event/organisation included on this event calendar.

SUMMARY:The Earth Holds Our Names [Solo Exhibition]
DESCRIPTION:Introducing Olumide Onadipe \nOLUMIDE ONADIPE (b. 1982) is a Lagos-based multidisciplinary artist whose practice explores the intersection of materiality and socio-political commentary. Working with diverse media\, Onadipe constructs idiosyncratic sculptures that offer subtle critiques of Nigerian society. Rather than explicit political statements\, his work often communicates through evocative forms and textured surfaces\, with meaning frequently revealed through suggestive titles that invite multiple interpretations. \nDeeply fascinated by environmental themes and the aesthetic possibilities of texture\, Onadipe transforms relatable materials into playful yet profound iterations that blur the line between object and commentary. \nOnadipe holds a master’s degree in Visual Arts from the University of Lagos (2012). His work has been featured prominently on the international stage\, including at the 1-54 Contemporary African Art Fair (London\, 2017)\, the Museum of African Contemporary Art Al Maaden (MACAAL) in Marrakech (2019)\, and ART X Lagos (2017). He has exhibited in group shows across Nigeria\, Ghana\, Germany\, France\, the UK\, and the USA. \nNotable residencies and collaborations include the Arthouse Contemporary residency and Open Studios (2016)\, the Colours of Hope project with the Children Living with Cancer Foundation (2014)\, and the American Nigerian Cultural Collaborative Project with the US Consulate and Nike Art Gallery (2013). Onadipe has held four solo exhibitions including Connecting the Dots (2018)\, and his work has been presented at START Art Fair\, London (2018) and Art Context Miami (2019). \n—- \nThe Earth Holds Our Names\nApril 19 – May 31\, 2026 \nOpening Reception: 2 PM – 6 PM\nArtist Talk: 4 PM\n10 Omo Osagie Street\, Ikoyi\, Lagos \nDetails by @sotogallery. \n*** \nDisclaimer: Unless explicitly stated\, ArtGuideAfrica does not own\, endorse and is not affiliated with any event/organisation included on this event calendar.

SUMMARY:Lagos Biennial 5th Edition - "The Museum of Things Unseen"
DESCRIPTION:Curators: Furen Dai\, Chinyere Obieze\, Sam Hopkins \n30.10 – 30 .11.2026 \n\n\nWhat lies hidden in the shadows of our museum spaces? Whose stories are silenced\, and whose voices are amplified? If we were to build a museum from scratch\, unbounded by structural inequities\, what form would it take? \nTitled The Museum of Things Unseen\, the Lagos Biennial 2026 offers a speculative response to these questions. This conceptual museum brings together a collection of works to address the contextual\, philosophical\, and political forces that shape practices of cultural circulations and museology. \nThe Museum of Things Unseen aims to bring together and exhibit rarely or never before seen artworks\, examining the factors (imbalanced global art canon shaped by cultural bias\, financial power\, political influence\, curatorial priorities\, and conservation concerns\, etc.) contributing to their unseenness. The intention is to open up the current bounding structures of these artworks\, and inquire into the invisible labour\, evolving identities\, and concealed market forces shaping our cultural landscape. Contemporary artists will be invited to reinterpret and reimagine the works on display\, questioning the invisibility of these works\, rewriting the narratives within the context of a speculative museum\, and offering new perspectives that illuminate the unseen dimensions of these pieces. \nDetails by @lagos_biennial. \n*** \nDisclaimer: Unless explicitly stated\, ArtGuideAfrica does not own\, endorse and is not affiliated with any event/organisation included on this event calendar.

SUMMARY:Blueprint for A Renaissance [Exhibition]
DESCRIPTION:The mid-20th-century surge of African independence was more than a geopolitical rupture; it was a demand for the total reclamation of the African psyche. Seventy years later\, the nature of the struggle has evolved from the political to the ontological. \nWhile the formal shackles have been dismantled\, the mandate for Africa to design\, reclaim\, and manifest its own singular future remains the defining imperative of our time. Blueprint for a Renaissance is a performative intervention into this unfinished project of liberation.\n“We face neither East nor West; we face forward.“\n— Kwame Nkrumah. \nWe are not curating an exhibition; we are constructing a sanctuary to be inhabited.\nNovember 2026 | Ibadan\, Nigeria \n#BlueprintForARenaissance #DemasNwoko #PierreChristopheGam #NewCultureStudios\n#TogunaWorld
