Open a larger version of the following image in a popup: In Conversation: Professor Jerry Buhari and Akin Oladimeji, From 6:30pm at 19 Garrett Street

Join us at 6:30pm on Tuesday, 20 May for a conversation between Professor Jerry Buhari and Akin Oladimeji inside Buhari’s exhibition Jápa at Ed Cross, 19 Garrett Street, London.

 

Akin Oladimeji is an art historian and critic. His writing has appeared in Third Text Online, Mousse, Burlington Contemporary and Stirworld. He is doing an Arts and Humanities Research Council-funded PhD on performance art in Africa and its entanglement with politics and indigenous spirituality.

 

Professor Jerry Buhari is a respected Nigerian artist, curator and arts educator whose practice spans over four decades. Buhari studied at the Department of Fine Art, Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, where he now serves as a professor. His work explores socio-political narratives, environmental issues, and intercultural dialogue through his practice and curatorial projects. In recent years, Buhari’s practice has engaged with the theme of migration, reflecting on the emotional, historical, and cultural dimensions of human movement across geographies.

 

Refreshments will be served from 6:30pm, with the in-conversation beginning at 7pm.
