Lagos exhibition creates market for artists

A new Christian art exhibition called “Creation Speaks” is set to open in Lagos on October 15, aiming to provide a platform for artists to showcase and sell their work while building a broader ecosystem around faith-based art. Organised by the Redeemed Christian Church of God, City of David, and Fobally Art World Africa, the two-week event is expected to feature around 200 artists who have registered through an open-call process.

The exhibition seeks to address market access gaps for artists, particularly emerging practitioners, and create opportunities for them to reach new audiences, sell their work, and connect with established practitioners. Organisers also aim to encourage young artists, fostering interactions between them and more established practitioners.
