Dig Where You Stand

Dig Where You Stand — From Coast to Coast is a series of exhibitions, offering a new model of engagement with questions of decolonization, restitution, and repatriation. Developed around the idea of regeneration, the exhibition becomes an experimental site for capital, ecology and resources repatriation – both tangible and symbolic, an exercise in the reclamation of the commons. By shifting the decolonial paradigm away from Western museums towards a location - specific, solution-oriented approach, the exhibition explores the regenerative potential of art across the African continent and its diasporas.

LagosPhoto Festival

Launched in 2010, LagosPhoto is the first international arts festival of photography in Nigeria. In a month-long festival, events include exhibitions, workshops, artist presentations, discussions, and large-scale outdoor prints displayed throughout the city with the aim of reclaiming public spaces and engaging the general public with multifaceted stories of Africa.

Eziokwu Podcast

Eziokwu, Speaking Truths is a bi-weekly podcast presented to you by the African Artists' Foundation is interested in exploring the intersection between art and contemporary African culture and the ways that it can shape self expression in our current moment. Through conversations with artists, curators and other cultural practitioners from various geographies across the African continent and the African diaspora, we unpack different forms of expression and the various ways we can reinterpret, reimagine and understand visual languages across Africa and engaging the general public with multifaceted stories of Africa
