Rahmon Olugunna

Rahmon Olugunna is a Yoruba artist and member of the third generation of the Oshogbo School of artists. The Oshogbo School was founded in the early 1960s around the town Oshogbo, where Susanne Wenger and artist Georgina Betts Beier, along with art critic Ulli Beier, led a series of art workshops that encouraged the incorporation of traditional Yoruba subject matter into art practice (until that time driven by Western teaching and philosophy). The members of the Oshogbo School's works are marked by the combination of traditional subjects and Western materials and techniques.
