Restless Cities: From Lagos to the World presents a view of African urban realities through the lens of iconic Lagos-born visual artist, Andrew Dosunmu.
Drawing inspiration from Dosunmu’s Monograph, the exhibition showcases a selection of images never before displayed on the continent. It invites viewers to explore Nigerian cities as living, breathing hubs, mirroring the connections we share in our everyday lives. Familiar images and experiences reflect the movement of people, ideas, and culture, emphasising the shared humanity of Africans globally. The city’s rhythms—its joys, challenges, and beauty— are expressed through the association of moments that construct urban life.
This exhibition is curated by Papa Omotayo – Founder, MOE+, Tega Okiti – ART X Cinema Curator, Haily Grenet – Curatorial Production Manager and Fikayo Adebajo – Associate Curator.
