Nigerian Artists of the Oshogbo School |

Indigo Arts exhibits work by some of Nigeria’s leading contemporary artists of the last fifty years, notably the painter Yinka Adeyemi, the late Asiru Olatunde and Rufus Ogundele, and Prince Twins Seven-Seven. Adeyemi was one of the original artists of the famed Oshogbo School (named for the city of that name), which arose in the newly independent Nigeria of the early 1960’s.
Father and son artists Yinka and Kola Adeyemi, Adeniji Adeyemi, Isaac Akindele, Prince Layi Orogun Ademoinore, Toromade Fatai, Toyin Folorunso, Aremu Jimoh, Tunde Odunlade, Ademola Oyelami, Bayo Ogundele, Jinadu Oladepo, Phillip Olufemi Babarinlo, Rahmon Olugunna, Bashiru Opabola, David Osevwe and the late artists Rufus Ogundele, Asiru Olatunde, and Yekini Folorunso all came out of the Oshogbo art movement.
