The Advisory Board includes notable members such as Mr. Franklin Kilbourn, Executive Chairman of Strauss & Co. South Africa; Mr. Lamon Rutten, Board Member of Ajlan & Brothers, Saudi Arabia; Mr. Olufemi Akinsanya, Chairman of First Ally Capital; and Mr. Olusegun Paul Andrew, Executive Chairman of MoMCAAL.
American-born broadcaster, playwright, critic, and columnist Bonnie Greer, OBE, also contributes her expertise as Museum Advisor on the project.
MoMCAAL is described as “a dynamic institution dedicated to celebrating the rich tapestry of African creativity,” with a belief in “the power of art to transcend borders, foster understanding, and inspire dialogue.”
The vision for the museum was conceptualized and led by Mr. Olusegun Paul Andrew, who has carefully crafted the vision plan for MoMCAAL.
The museum is dedicated to showcasing Africa’s diverse artistic expressions, providing a platform for contemporary African artists to share their perspectives, stories, and experiences across various art forms, including painting, sculpture, photography, video, and installation.
In addition to exhibitions, MoMCAAL offers workshops, artist residencies, and educational programs to engage visitors.
“MoMCAAL is not just a museum; it’s a hub for fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation of African art and culture,” where dialogue and exchange between artists, scholars, and the community are encouraged and celebrated.
