In collaboration with the internationally renowned London based art organisation <span style="font-weight: bold;">Gasworks</span>, we are pleased to present artist Albert Potrony who will be based at CCA, Lagos for 5 weeks from 1sth November to 7th December 2010.<br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">Artist-in-residence Talk, Saturday 27th November 2pm</span><br /><br />Meet, greet and interact with Albert after his presentationand his research interest whilst in Lagos.<br /><br />During his stay in Lagos his research will focus on Lagos Churches and Pastors<br /><br />I would like to contact male and female pastors from a variety of churches that represent various sections of the population. I am interested in having a conversation about their journey to becoming a pastor, looking at various elements of the religious discourse/language – Their Calling, their Mandate, moments of Epiphany, what Deliverance means to them and their relationship to ‘miracles’.<br /><br />The 2nd part will focus on Lagosians<br /><br />In a very simple way I would like to document conversations with Lagosians asking them a few simple questions:<br /><br />What Faith means to you? How Faith affects your everyday life? Have you had any moment of ‘epiphany’ or of understating something about yourself through your beliefs? What does ‘deliverance’ mean to you? Do you believe in miracles?<br /><br />For examples of previous work please go to www.albertpotrony.com<br /><br />This residency has been supported by Gasworks, London<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">LAST CHANCE.

post-coloniality and its related ambivalence. In so doing, we developed a series of projects under the thematic rubric of “On Independence and the Ambivalence of Promise.” One such project concerns exploring the intersections of art, fashion and identity, and how these relations might enable us to critically interact with the present while remaining mindful of both our past and future. Given this, we present J.D. ‘Okhai Ojeikere: <b>Sartorial Moments and the Nearness of Yesterday</b>, a vibrant, yet topical, exhibition that celebrates Nigeria’s Independence and cultural heritage from the perspective of one of the country’s most esteemed and talented artist.<span style="color:black;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: verdana;font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:85%;" ><span style="line-height: 115%;font-size:12;color:black;" >CCA,Lagos is excited and honoured to work with foto ojeikere to present this select body of work by internationally renowned Nigerian photographer J.D.

Lagos, Nigeria’s business capital, Yemisi Shyllon lives in a house full of bronze statues of African tribal rulers and brightly coloured beadwork landscapes.

Featuring the work of over 60 artists in Africa, Europe, Asia, the United States, and the Caribbean, The Global Africa Project surveys the rich pool of new talent emerging from the African continent and its influence on artists around the world. Through ceramics, basketry, textiles, jewelry, furniture, and fashion, as well as selective examples of architecture, photography, painting, and sculpture, the exhibition actively challenges conventional notions of a singular African aesthetic or identity, and reflects the integration of African art and design without making the usual distinctions between "professional" and "artisan."<a href="http://www.madmuseum.org/INFO/PressRoom/Press%20Releases/global%20africa.aspx"> Read more http://www.madmuseum.org/</a></span>Bisihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05506965606357747282noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1449302214168522672.post-19632420386980005702010-07-22T05:30:00.008+01:002010-07-22T06:37:50.769+01:00CCA,Lagos' Art-iculate presents two lectures by Chika Okeke-Agulu<div style="text-align: right;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_KI0wWRmbYJM/TEfLLsH8UiI/AAAAAAAACHU/vMlQiiUujrI/s1600/CCA+Logo.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 44px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_KI0wWRmbYJM/TEfLLsH8UiI/AAAAAAAACHU/vMlQiiUujrI/s200/CCA+Logo.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5496585271912452642" border="0" /></a>

<br /><span style="font-family:georgia;">Centre for Contemporary Art, Lagos has initiated a dynamic platform for discussions on visual art and culture since opening its doors in January 2008. We have invited artists, critics, writers, curators and funders to talk about their work and their ideas and share their skills and knowledge. In 2009, we began the Art-iculate lecture series that aims to increase dialogue, encourage debate and stimulate exchange in visual art and culture in Nigeria. By prioritising the provision of an independent discursive platform through our public programmes, we hope to actively encourage the development of critical perspectives as well as engage with topical issues that affect our society specifically as well as the world at large.</span>
<br />
<br /><span style="font-family:georgia;">In 2008/2009 Art-iculate invited to much acclaim Didier Schaub (Doual'Art, Cameroon), Solange Farkas (Videobrasil, Sao Paulo) Yacouba Konate (University of Abidjan, Abidjan) Monna Mokoena (MOMO Gallery, Johannesburg) and Shahidul Alam (Drik Agency, Dhaka).
<br /></span>
<br /><span style="font-family:georgia;">In 2010 Art-iculate is pleased to invite US based Nigerian art historian and curator Chika Okeke-Agulu who will be presenting his lectures on two consecutive Sundays - 25th of July and 1st of August.</span>
<br />
<br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);font-family:georgia;" >Title: “Who Knows Tomorrow at the Nationalgalerie, Berlin”</span>
<br /><span style="font-family:georgia;">Discusses on the project concept and the curatorial process of the art exhibition Who Knows Tomorrow, which consists of five independent projects by five African artists — El Anatsui, Zarina Bhimji, Antonio Ole, Yinka Shonibare, and Pascale Marthine Tayou — at four museums of the Nationalgalerie, Berlin, Germany. The lecture will cover issues around presentation of contemporary African art and artists in mainstream Western museums, as well as the politics of representation and identity in the age of globalisation.
<br /></span>

Over a one week period of screenings, lectures and panel discussions, <i>Towards a Double Consciousness: NSK Passport Project</i> will take as its point of departure, NSK’s artistic intervention <i>State in Time</i> and its increasing significance in Africa especially within the context of Nigeria. <i style="">State in Time</i>, one of the most (in)famous projects produced by NSK, evolved out of their earlier activities, finding formation as a ‘state’ at the collapse of Yugoslavia and the coming into existence of the Republic of Slovenia in 1991. NSK’s <i>State in Time</i> transcends a physical geographical location or a defined statehood within a prescribed ethnic, cultural or religious belief, providing what IRWIN collaborator and writer Alexei Monroe describes as “a conceptual form of identification for individuals from diverse nationalities.”</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: georgia;">
<br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: georgia;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;">Since the initial presentations around the world in the 1990s of <i>State in Time</i> the project is currently receiving a substantial number of requests for citizenship of the NSK State from Africa especially from Nigeria. This has resulted in many Nigerians assuming a dual identity as holders of NSK and Nigerian passports. In view of these new developments IRWIN conducted interviews with African/<span class="il">NSK</span> citizens living in London, to ascertain their reasons for applying. Could it be in support of the initial artistic purpose of NSK? Do they see it as an avenue with which to move from one territory to another? Or is it for other socio-political reasons? <i>Towards a Double Consciousness: NSK Passport</i> project will allow further debate on both the artistic and political implications of the NSK <i>State in Time</i> action, offering an examination of their original artistic interventions within the Nigerian context.

It provides an avenue to interrogate notions of nationhood at a time when our ideas of citizenship is continuously being challenged by state policies such as Nigeria’s contentious ‘federal character’ system or through religious and ethnic disturbances such as the recent unrest in the city of Jos, as well as the perennial civic unrest of the oil rich Niger Delta. <i style="">Towards a</i> <i>Double Consciousness </i>attempts to interrogate the way in which artists propose and individuals search for an alternative - real or fictional - possibility that goes beyond notions of a fixed identity or geography.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: georgia;">

The white jump suit she designed and then presented in the streets of Dakar was inspired by Capoeira<b>. Ndiaga Diaw</b> (SN) also incorporates Capoeira movements in his creative work. The convertible outfit he designed can be worn in six different ways. Astrid S.

In his performance, <b>Philip Metz</b> (GH/DE) examined the image of the “typical African” from both a German and a Senegalese perspective. The performance and video artist <b>Athi-Patra Ruga</b> (ZA) looks in his work at the danger the rampant homophobia in West Africa poses to the body and soul of homosexuals. </span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%;font-family:trebuchet ms;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="line-height: 115%;font-size:12;" lang="EN-US" >The work of fashion designer <b>Ule Barcélos</b> (GW/PT/DE) take as its object the enhancement and creative redesigning of cheap clothes with the use of logos and decorations, a widespread practice among less privileged children and young people in the urban centres of Africa.

However, this did not stop me fighting fatigue ( from my hectic lagos schedule) and jetlag so as to get up early enough the next morning for an impromptu meeting facilitated by Nigerian artist Bright Eke to meet with gallerist Alitash Kebede. Although I had been reading about her and her <a href="http://www.alitashkgallery.com/">gallery</a> in Los Angeles for over a decade I was only introduced to her - electronically - by Bright about 12-18months ago. Therefore, not minding the jetlag, I jumped at the opportunity to meet this intriguing woman . I wanted to hear, learn and take pointers from her story. Wasn't that the reason I was in America, to meet as many of the people I had read about and whose careers I had followed for many years, to meet new ones, to engage in interesting dialogues and in the process to learn as much as possible. As the saying goes, life is one continuous education.<br /><br />With over 20years experience in the gallery business Alitash has so many stories to share and she darted from one incident to the other experience before I could digest the last one. I was trying to digest not only my sumptuous breakfast, but also the information about how she started the gallery , the invaluable mentorship of art historian Dr. Samella Lewis, her longterm professional and personal relationships with African American greats such as Jacob Lawrence and Romare Bearden as well as speaking about the pros and cons of how to tour exhibition, possible fundraising strategies for CCA,Lagos. We spoke about the necessity for long term support of artists' careers but also how not to burn out early. Alitash now devotes a lot of her time to programmes that take art to children as well as organising one off cultural events and projects. Our conversation moved back and forth on the lack of cultural infrastructure on the continent, the way we can continue to support the arts and especially nurture younger African artists as well as our irritation at the lack of interest from wealthy Africans to provide meaningful support to the visual arts or any arts for that matter. Wow what an inspiration!<br /><br />Alitash said she had been following our work at CCA,Lagos and appreciated very much our efforts in a challenging environment. She could not hide her emotion at this fortuitous meeting, leaving me momentarily lost for words. (and thinking we are not on Oprah, are we?) <span style="font-style: italic;">Ah mean </span><span style="font-style: italic;">this is</span><span style="font-style: italic;"> America</span>! It was an incredible moment spent with such a generous, beautiful woman. As we parted, I felt sad but I know our paths will cross again soon. I couldn't have wished for a sweeter beginning to the journey ahead. </span>Bisihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05506965606357747282noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1449302214168522672.post-74113890338142777872010-04-30T01:48:00.000+01:002010-05-04T02:00:33.370+01:00The inaugural ICI touring curatorial conversation series gets rolling<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;font-size:85%;" >I am really pleased and privileged to have been invited as the first touring curator for Independent Curators International. This new programme hinges on the premise that in addition to circulating objects (exhibitions) there is a need to also add the circulation of ideas and experiences through the works and presentations of curators from a diversity of backgrounds and contexts. On my part it is a welcome initiative which provides the opportunity after a long hiatus (nearly almost 15yrs since my last visit to the USA) to engage with the art community in the US, build networks and explore possibilities for future collaborations.<br /><br />After what seemed like an interminable journey (17hrs) I arrived at JFK with my flu in full bloom. Yes nature's punishment for nonstop work and non stop travel. The next day I nonetheless jumped into another plane with ICI director Kate Fowle Chicago bound. <br /><br />I will try and keep the blog updated with the American trip. </span>Bisihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05506965606357747282noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1449302214168522672.post-5414990126848608652010-04-25T23:43:00.003+01:002010-04-25T23:49:41.713+01:00A new foundation brings together a stellar African and German photography collection<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;font-size:85%;" >The Walther Collection opens in June 2010 with "Events of the Self: Portraiture and Social Identity," introducing works from its African collection. Under the curatorial direction of Okwui Enwezor the exhibition comprises a series of four projects filling all nine galleries in the three buildings of the new exhibition space in Burlafingen near Ulm, Southern Germany. It integrates the work of three generations of African artists and photographers with that of modern and contemporary German photography. This combination of African and German works will serve as a model for the kind of curatorial process that animates the character of the collecting program.<br /><br />Find out more information about the <a href="http://www.waltercollection.com">Walther Collection<br /></a><br />Read the full public release at <a href="http://www.e-flux.com/shows/view/8032">e-flux</a></span>Bisihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05506965606357747282noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1449302214168522672.post-26646281292013364672010-04-23T20:37:00.002+01:002010-04-23T21:00:41.381+01:00Nigerians Photographers on the Move Again to Dakar. Invisible Borders 2010<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;font-size:85%;" >I am always happy when I learn that visual artists or any group of artists are on the move - especially by road - within their region and within Africa. On one hand it is a serious challenge not meant for the fainthearted as they learnt the hard way on their first project Invisible Borders 2009 which took them to the Bamako Biennale. On the other hand it begins to address decades long of divide along arbitrary colonial lines. But more importantly with Africans on the move within their continent, could this be the long march (thanks Madiba) towards a real organic sense of unity. <br /><br />In 1990 ECOWAS supposedly implemented the Borderless Region Procotol. A worthy initiative which has not been allowed to be turned into reality as going through many of these borders and the countries can be a feat harder than climbing Mount Kilimanjaro. I know as I have had my oddest experiences trying to cross the border from Lagos to Rep of Benin by car, by okada (yes oh and that wasn't funny at all) and on foot.<br /><br />As the group embarks on its journey, I wish them easy passage, lots of fun and encounters but most of all I wish them God's Blessings throughout the trip. Oh and some even more interesting pictures than the last time. I know you can all do something extraordinary.<br /><br />Accompany them through <a href="http://invisible-borders.blogspot.com">www.invisible-borders.blogspot.com</a></span>Bisihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05506965606357747282noreply@blogger.com0
