Description:Read about the life of the acclaimed Nigerian female artist Chief Nike Okundaye, known at various periods of her life as ‘Nike Twins Seven Seven’ and ‘Nike Davies’. Find out how she overcame her impoverished background and went from a side act in a travelling theatre to become an internationally acclaimed artist, and a leading champion of the revival of indigenous textile art, and the owner of one of the biggest art galleries in Africa, and helped lift thousands of people out of poverty. A Biography of Níkę - ‘Bàtà Mi á Dún Ko Ko Kà written by Kofo Adeleke is about the art, times and philosophy of this exuberant, multi-talented artist, and businesswoman who was awarded one of the highest honours in Italy for turning around the lives of females led into prostitution. This book will enable a much wider audience to understand the real breadth and depth of her underestimated achievements and learn about how her own brand of philosophy and philanthropy has driven her for most of her life. It highlights the continued struggle and tensions experienced by the female artist, especially the informally trained female African artist. It focuses on the ability to climb out of poverty and make an impact on the world, and how marginalised African traditions and culture can become beneficial and relevant in modern life. This authorised biography comes at a time when there is a surge of interest in African art and history around the world. There is also the burgeoning growth of a very young underemployed population, desperately looking for fresh inspiration, new ideas, opportunities and horizons. It has a wide appeal to a range of ages and groups of people interested in African heritage, African art, creative occupations, female artists, textile history, and fashion. There are very few biographies coming out of Africa, particularly with a focus on art, especially from Nigeria, and specifically about female artists.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
