This tribalism is getting old. Are you not tired of it?

Since NCAN has continued to tribalise crime, it will be fair to also tribalise glory. Hope you are not a member of NCAN?

VAQAXY:



What's wrong in what I said? Did i insult you or anyone? Why are you unsettled?

Please ignore the Yoruba demon joo.

Whomever currently owns the art piece being sold...
However, his son runs the Ben Enwonwu Foundation (which probably owns some of his pieces).

PerfectlyPerfect:

You rushed to announce his state of Origin with "anambra amaka". I'm Igbo but I'm tired of the tribalism on Nairaland.
I apologize if you took it the wrong way

Nobody care if you are from Hades. If you consider glorying in my brother's achievement tribalism, then you are addressing the wrong people.

...

let me correct the title:

"Ben Enwonwu's SIGNATURE on painting sells for millions of pounds"

Can someone sale something like this?

Here is the topic = www-nairaland-com.0.freebasics.com/5094238/take-look-object-dug-out/9?iorg_service_id_internal=1646953538912597">https://https-www-nairaland-com.0.freebasics.com/5094238/take-look-object-dug-out/9?iorg_service_id_internal=1646953538912597%3BAfo0a3td7SJKR5oC

Probably not...
But you can take it along and check/discuss.

There will be scores of collectors, appraisers and artists. Good luck!

Some of you sound like you ought to get out and get around more...

Apart from art being part of our cultural DNA, there are some fantastic galleries and showings in Lagos...
For instance, Art X (the fourth edition of which is coming up in about # weeks) is arguably the pre-eminent art fair in SS Africa.

Nonetheless, even abroad in the so-called First World, Art is not usually for the masses...
To that extent, given the amount of local and native art that pervades the Nigerian public space, you comments are rather ironic.

You misunderstand. I agree that art is beyond the most of the masses even in developed Climes. However, it enjoys a massive following. Infact, those who aren't followers of art trends still understand the value of art. A janitor can find the monalisa and will still have the Sense to keep it safe and take it to the police. An average Nigerian will just throw it away. I'm particularly fascinated by the exact that the artist painted a princess of ife in the 1980s. An igbo artist painting a princess that far back is surreal. Nigerians only admire the mundane. That's my grouse.

Where is the painting �
Do I have to find it in another page � or an entirely different sites

Pls where is the Ben, the Enweonwu and the painting. That's the reason I enter here to see but I no see anything instead

warripekin:
That's a master peace. Probably bought by a Nigerian .
The where abouts of the other two peaces is still unknown.

Lol. A Nigerian won't pay that much for a painting. we don't value art. Even if I'm richer than Dangote, I won't pay that much abeg.

No need, I don't even get transport money.

PerfectlyPerfect:
First time I'm hearing of a Nigerian art piece sold at so high a price. I'm impressed

Late Dora Akunyuli's daughter once sold a painting in millions of dollars too.

Go to some of these old buildings in our villages and you will see carved stools and tables there (when they could easily have just settled for utilitarian plain chairs and tables). That’s innate/inbred art appreciation, it does not necessarily have to involve the Mona Lisa or a Van Gogh.

PS: ‘Tutu’ was actually painted in the 1970s, not the 1980s.

You forgot to add Twin 7 7. they're all contemporary Nigerian Artists

Is Punchng.com a blogger's site

It was a blogger who brought the new to NL (which is also a glorified blog) and failed to include the sample of the painting. Another blog Mod pushed to PF without taking a second look.
