Abe Odedina
Abe Odedina (1960- ) is a Nigerian painter. He works on board rather than canvas to invoke mural traditions. For Odedina, the material is deeply tied to the resulting work. Odedina's inspiration draws heavily from figurative and oral traditions of African art and ancient Greek and Yoruba mythologies. His bold colors create surreal interior scenes.
