Come and spend the evening surrounded by the works of Nigerian Contemporary Artist, @alimiadewale . . Saturday, October 13 12pm to 6pm Please contact for address . Pictures courtesy of the Artists’ Instagram. ... Alimi Adewale is a painter and sculptor who explores urban issues and the lives of everyday people in cities. His portraits, landscapes and nudes combine elements of minimalism and abstraction to evoke the movement and intensity of the cosmopolitan environment. Alimi Adewale’s practice posits genres traditionally evoked in paintingsuch as portraits, landscapes, and nudes but with a contemporary expression in a profusion of rich texture and often uncommon sculptural finish. Whether utilizing photography and oil paint (Owambe, 2015) or the thick lump of oil mediums, (House of Assembly 2013) that takes years to dry, Alimi mines the endless possibilities of a particular material to introduce an additional dimension into the work: that of time. Imbued with their own mortality, his sculptures cultivate the experiential function of art compared to the traditional African sculptures. Alimi incorporates elements of minimalism and abstraction to create an oeuvre that is distinctly current, and as witty as it is macabre. . #contemporaryart #contemporaryartists #contemporarynigerianart #alimiadewale #nigerianart #urbanspaces #nigeriancities #painting #art #oakville #oakvilleart #nigerianpainter #nigerian #nigeriansincanada #nigeriansindiaspora See more
