For nearly a decade, ART X Lagos has prided itself as a vibrant community gathering place fostering rich connections between diverse artists and practitioners alike in Africa’s art, music, film, and culture landscape.
Themed Promised Lands, the fair is back with its line-up of exciting programs, including The Projects, ART X Talks, ART X Cinema, The Development Forum, as well as the highly-anticipated ART X Live!—a unique showcase that features collaborations between emerging artists and musicians from across Africa.
ART X Live! 2024 is set to offer an unforgettable night where the spirit of traditional Nigerian Fuji music merges seamlessly with contemporary sounds. Led by returning curators Lanre Masha and Ayo Lawson, the event will feature Fuji icon Adewale Ayuba, genre-blurring artist Cruel Santino (fka Santi), and electrifying house music DJ Aniko. Producer and artist Odunsi (The Engine) will also be making his sophomore ART X Live! appearance following his 2018 performance, this time as a creative director alongside renowned visual artist Niyi Okeowo.
Previous editions witnessed artists like Obongjayar, DBN Gogo, Dope Caesar, Lojay, Tay Iwar, BNXN, Winny and more taking the stage to offer immersive performances.
The 2024 edition promises engaging curatorial projects from 10 exhibitors, who will present works from an array of visual artists across the continent and diaspora, from Harare, Cotonou and Lagos to London and everywhere in-between.
ART X Lagos will be returning to The Federal Palace from October 31 – November 3. The event will commence with the Collectors’ Preview on October 31, followed by the VIP Preview on November 1, and Public Open Days on November 2 and November 3. See you there!
