In Nigeria art patronage is still a
developing culture. A number of factors of course go to inform the flowering of
this culture or the lack of it for that matter. Thus in history of art, art
patronage refers to the support and encouragement that was provided to people
in the arts such as painters, sculptors, musicians, etc, by kings, popes and
wealthy individuals in society. But art appreciation generally is still in its
infancy in our clime as it were.
