ART X Lagos 2026: A Canoe, Kwali’s Pots and a New Decade for West Africa’s Biggest Art Fair

15. November 2026 by sl1 - Assistant de galerie

Bright comic of a cartoon Nigerian woman in a red Adire dress and a young Nigerian man in patterned Afrocentric clothes with clear faces facing the viewer in a sunny Lagos art-fair hall with a suspended canoe, indigo fabric, decorated clay pots and a metal sculpture

The 11th ART X Lagos turned Nigeria’s art week into a meditation on memory, migration and heritage – from Ndidi Dike’s suspended canoe to a tribute to the potter Ladi Kwali.
