Ade's works have been exhibited in a number of galleries, including the Singer Gallery (Atlanta), the Frameless Gallery (London) and the Brunei Gallery (London). His works in the ‘Legacies of Biafra’ exhibition engage with themes of colonialism & neo-colonialism.
Ade Ogundimu is a painter and sculptor who manipulates his medium in concept and stylistic diffusions to achieve his goal. He explores the poetry of texture, of colour and light that envelope us every day.
Toni Ndikanwu works mostly in acrylic when painting and uses wood and ceramic tiles to weave his more distinct pieces. He worked as a professional artist exhibiting in and around Nigeria until 1996, and has had numerous group and solo shows in and around Europe.
Artist Hassan Aliyu whose work is on display in the Legacies of Biafra exhibition which commemorates the 50th anniversary of the end of the Nigeria-Biafra war. She will join us for an online talk on Wed 9 Feb, 2pm.

@KathyKe34073347@LyndseyKramer19@DavidOlusoga Should we campaign for statues of Hitler to be erected in all city centres of Europe so that history may never forget what horrors he committed whilst also building research facilities, gas plants, the autobahn, schools, factories and hospitals?
