Contemporary African Artist
Olusegun Paul Andrew stands as a towering presence in Modern and Contemporary African Art. His deep commitment to elevating African creativity has reshaped the global art narrative.
A seasoned visual artist with over four decades of practice, Paul found his voice in 1978 at Ibadan’s Toki Memorial Arts Centre. There, he embraced abstraction under the influence of Tunde Odunlade, Tunrayo Onibonokuta, Jimoh Braimoh, and Twin Seven Seven.
In 2021, he launched Zero Privé Gallery in Ikoyi—a space where rich cultural heritage meets bold, contemporary ambition. Through his gallery, Paul fuses tribal motifs with modern vision, delivering immersive experiences that resonate across the art world.
His private collections engage deeply with cultural politics, using visual metaphors to explore social, psychological, and political dramas. He layers irony and humor into his work, rendering human experience both evocative and approachable.
His stature in the private collection space reflects the strategic importance of African-focused patrons worldwide. Like acclaimed collectors Jean Pigozzi and Yemisi Shyllon, Paul leverages private curation to tell compelling stories, elevate underrepresented voices, and cement Africa’s position in the international art market.
For discerning collectors seeking authenticity, insight, and impact, Olusegun Paul Andrew represents trust, longevity, and leadership in African art.

My art captures the natural world—its quiet beauty and expansive wonder. I’m drawn to the fine details of flowers, the power of the sea, and the open majesty of the sky. Each subject offers its own challenge and a fresh space for expression.
