ADJANI OKPU-EGBE SHOWS AT THE ROYAL OPERA GALLERY IN LONDON

The creative renaissance amongst young Cameroonians is explosive and it certainly shows.  

ADJANI is one of the most exciting and intriguing emerging expressionist artists of his generation prefering his work to be described as ''EXPRESSADJANISM'' simply because of the circumstances that have inspired and that still inspire him. 

His paintings are mostly autobiographical. He tells amazing mind buggling stories in probably the most incredible and 'deep' pictures ever painted in recent times. 

Adjani draws inspiration from varied subjects, ranging from socio-cultural, to political, economical, religious, enviromental, and anything that catches his fancy.

He works with a diverse range of media such as; strong primary acrylic colours, oil, pens, ink, oil pastel, pencils on canvas, wood, boards, and preferably ''found media''. These gives his work originality and a unique striking view that catches the eyes instantly. Most of Adjani's fans often say that ''it is almost impossible to ignore the energy and vibration radiated from his paintings in their life forms''. Adjani is a daring and energetic artist, a character trait which is conspicuously consistent in most, if not all of his works. 

His fans were so not wrong in their judgement of his work...check out some of the paintings he exhibited at the Royal Opera Gallery in London last month.
