Join us at G.A.S. Lagos on 2nd April 2026 for The Cyanotype Studio, a two-part event featuring a hands-on cyanotype printing workshop and an open studio led by current resident adeoluwa oluwajoba. Exploring the transfer and reproduction of images, moving between the painted object and photographic printmaking in his pratice, adeoluwa's work examines the forms and positions the human body assumes within private, intimate spaces, as well as the possibilities for influence, symbiosis, and subversion between object and form.

This March, Guest Artists Space (G.A.S.) Foundation, in partnership with the Yinka Shonibare Foundation (Y.S.F.), announced the call for the pilot edition of the G.A.S. Critical Writing Workshop, an initiative designed to support the professional and critical development of emerging local art writers, researchers, and cultural practitioners. This edition explores critical art writing practices while examining how writing can function as a tool for activism, encouraging readers to ask questions, challenge narratives, and engage more deeply with the social and political contexts that shape contemporary art.

The Afrosonic Innovation Lab is a team of artists, creatives, and scholars actively engaged in the making of music, sound experimentation, and musicological analysis. We actively seek and cultivate projects globally which involve research creation, performance, publication, field research, and curation. While based in Toronto, we work across a number of sites in Canada and internationally.

African Style Archive (ASA) is a research platform and visual repository dedicated to documenting and preserving African fashion history. By collecting photographs, rare books, and ephemera, ASA connects historic and contemporary narratives of African dress, offering scholars, institutions, and cultural practitioners a vital resource for understanding how style reflects identity, politics, and creativity across the continent and diaspora.

LUDI is a catalyst for human(e)-centred, inclusive, liveable, and sustainable urban development across African cities. We mobilise people, knowledge, and systems through advocacy, experimentation, and cross-sector collaboration to strengthen urban governance and advance equitable urban transformation. Our work bridges research, policy, and practice, creating spaces where diverse urban actors can collectively shape more just and resilient cities.
One component of this mission is the LUDI Library. The Library responds to the fragmentation of scholarship and practice-based knowledge on African urbanism and architecture. By curating and centralising key texts, research outputs, and critical resources, it provides a structured and accessible knowledge platform for students, researchers, practitioners, and policymakers. In doing so, it strengthens intellectual continuity, supports evidence-informed decision-making, and deepens critical engagement with the specific spatial, social, and governance dynamics shaping African cities.

Last week, we welcomed adeoluwa oluwajoba, a Lagos-based mixed media artist and a recipient of the G.A.S. Fellowship Award 2026, for a residency at G.A.S. Lagos. Working across painting, collage, and photographic printmaking, adeoluwa’s practice examines the transfer and reproduction of images, exploring how visual fragments can be layered to create intricate and often disjointed scenes of bodies and landscapes. His work investigates the shifting relationships between image, meaning, and spatial experience.
