In the next few years Nigeria stands to reap
in the excess of $500 million from art annually. This opinion as espoused six
years ago by a notable visual art practitioner and researcher, Dr. Joe Musa,
was enough to ignite a heated debate at the maiden conference of creative
artists under the tag name – Creative Convergence. The creative (visual) art community
reasonably dominated by the fine art practitioners like painters, sculptors,
and designers is the main hub of the noble idea for the birth of this forum.
