Consulter la cote et le prix de Signed African Oshogbo Painting - Musicians - Ca. 2010

Description : Africa, Nigeria, Yoruba, artist: Ola of the Oshogbo School, signed Ola on lower left, ca. 2010. A vibrant ink painting on cotton fabric created by Ola of the Osogbo (Oshogbo) School. This composition features several musicians, the most prominent one playing the mbanza, a string instrument from which the American banjo is derived - all in a striking fuchsia, violet, cerulean blue, vermilion, sunny yellow, cherry red, black, and white palette with stylized geometric patterns adorning most elements of the composition - surrounded by a 'beaded' frame. Artists of the Osogbo school (named for a town in southwestern Nigeria) traditionally have been influenced by Yoruba mythology and culture. This piece demonstrates influences of the best known Osogbo school artists including Prince Twins Seven-Seven, Yinka Adeyemi, and the late Asiru Olatunde and Rufus Ogundele. Size: 36 L x 22 W (91.4 cm x 55.9 cm) Oshogbo painting presents lively imagery depicting animals, plants, humans, and Yoruba deities. The compositions resonate with those of Yoruba carvings, and the iconography reflects notions of balance and transformation in addition to dualities such as past and present, the earthly and the spiritual, machines and agriculture.
