The first monograph in the series, OSAGHAE – Visual Chronicles of a Society in Flux is devoted to one of the foremost contemporary artists in Nigeria – Ben Osaghae. In addition to biographical information on the artist and a scholarly analysis of his work, the book features over 130 images of works produced by Osaghae in a period spanning more than three decades; from the tentative pieces of his early years at Auchi to the assertive and confident works of recent years. Castellote and Adetunji offer the general public a rigorous – accessible and easy to read – introduction to the oeuvre of Osaghae, placed in the context of Nigerian contemporary art.
