Titolo di vendita : Muraina Oyelami, originally a theatre actor and musician, was one of the original attendees of the famous Oshogbo Art School. At the 1964 workshop conducted by Georgina Beier his work was recognised as quite distinctive in its rendering of undefined figures. Within a short time Oyelami's paintings became completely non-figurative and he developed a powerful use of colour. Over the course of his long career, Oyelami's works have moved away from this early abstraction but are still characterized by their compositional balance and bold, sculptural forms. Oyelami's work has been displayed in exhibitions throughout the world including: Bolaji and Oyelami, Tafeta Gallery, London, 2017 Contemporary African from the Collection of William Jones, Aljira, A Center for Contemporary Art, New Jersey, 2007 A Concrete Vision: Oshogbo Art in the 1960s, National Museum of African Art, Smithsonian Institute, Washington DC, 2000 Contemporary Nigerian Artists: Ten Artists of the Oshogbo Workshop, New World Center Campus Art Gallery, Miami, 1980 Contemporary Art from Africa, Institute of Contemporary Art, London, 1967. His works feature in collections including the Studio Museum Harlem and the IWALEWA-Haus in Germany. Alan Donovan began collecting and promoting Oyelami's work in 1967.
