Tayo Adenaike Nigerian, b. 1954

Nigeria’s premiere luxury boutique hotel, The Wheatbaker, is at the forefront of contemporary Nigerian art with their robust and innovative art exhibitions all year round since it opened it's doors in 2011. It is with great pleasure and pride that The Wheatbaker presents its private art collection to the public.

Besides being an impressive showing by each artist, AKALAKA is an important home coming for two influential artists of the Uli tradition, who have not had a major showing in Nigeria since the mid 1990’s.
