Join us at G.A.S. Lagos on 17th July 2026 for our Library Open Day, an opportunity to delve deeper into the resources of the G.A.S. Library and Picton Archive. Established in 2022, the library holds a growing collection covering the visual arts of Sub-Saharan Africa and its diaspora. At its core is the Picton Archive and Reference Collection, a specialist collection on African art following the lifetime gift of a personal library from Emeritus Professor of African Art (University of London) John Picton, and Sue Picton.

Join us at G.A.S. Lagos on 8th July 2026 for im/MATERIAL, an intimate conversation and presentation of new works exploring the research and material investigations undertaken by current resident Moses Hamborg during his time at the G.A.S. Farm House in Ikiṣẹ.

Thank you for your interest in the Lagos Art Tour 2026. We are delighted to open bookings for the invitation-only Lagos Art Tour 2026, a curated donor journey with Guest Artists Space (G.A.S.) Foundation and Yinka Shonibare Foundation (Y.S.F.), taking place during Lagos Art Week and ART X Lagos. 

In February 2026, G.A.S. Foundation was formally announced as a participant in the 61st International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia by Koyo Kouoh. During the opening week of 5–9 May, the Foundation presented Chorus, a major installation developed through its residency programme spanning its purpose-built creative campus in Lagos and its sustainability-focused farm with an onsite studio in Ikise. Alongside this presentation, alumni, trustees, and collaborators participated in a range of independently programmed events across Venice, reflecting the expanding reach of the Foundation’s network.

Adeyinka Akingbade, a Lagos-based painter, photographer, and graphic designer, joins us for a four-week residency at G.A.S. Lagos. His multidisciplinary practice spans painting, photography, mixed media, installation and research, and is concerned with the repurposing of materials that are often discarded or lost to reflect on migration and memory.
