Get to know us

Africans Art Gallery, founded in 2015 as a pioneering online platform, was established to elevate African art and artists on the global stage. Our mission is rooted in the belief that art is not merely a cultural artifact but a dynamic, enduring asset class capable of generating wealth and preserving heritage. Over the past decade, we have cultivated a trusted ecosystem that empowers artists, engages collectors, and democratizes access to African art. In 2024, we expanded our footprint with a flagship physical gallery in Accra, Ghana, and are poised to open a second location in Lagos, Nigeria, further anchoring our presence in Africa’s vibrant creative epicenters.

Our mission

We champion emerging and established African artists, providing them with a platform to showcase their work to a global audience.

Our vision

We position art as a critical component of diversified investment portfolios, offering collectors tangible value through curated acquisitions, market insights, and innovative liquidity solutions.
