Damien Hirst accused of copying African art at Venice Biennale In the interview, Mr. Ehikhamenor said the Ife head “ is very, very famous.” “It’s one of the most intricate and most beautiful works of art that were created by classical African artists,” he continued. (CNN) - English artist Damien Hirst has been accused of cultural appropriation after his exhibition, "Treasures from the Wreck of the Unbelievable," featured a "golden head" that appears to mirror sculpted heads created by African artists from Ile-Ife Nigeria. Cradle of the West African Yoruba culture. http://www.cnn.com/2017/05/10/africa/damien-hirst-appropriation-venice-biennale/ 5 Likes 1 Share

They once described us as primitive people who never developed anything worthwhile or worthy of appreciation. Why are they now shamelessly copying our "worthless" artworks for display at their exhibitions? 102 Likes 13 Shares |

That is what happens when Africans don't appreciate their cultures and call it "Evil" The smart "long nosed" people will surely help you use it to make cool cash- while you keep labelling it as "juju" ![]() 23 Likes 1 Share |

...........Let me use dis opportunity to advise guys who foolishily follow/live their lives to please girls. U are on ur way to your early grave. See the way nairalanders adores some stupid girls here makes me go gaga. I dont really undastand whats so special about their toto or nyash or breast. It takes only a woman to bring a very strong man to his knees. For Gods sake why do men follow women about like sheep with direction. A gal dat mensturates evry 28days, wets her dirty smelling pants, yet u behave like an idiot before her. Wetin they hungry u for her stupid body? ThankGod for my kind of friends. 9 Likes 2 Shares |

Until lions have their historians, tales of the forest will always favour the hunters. Until we Africans rise up to document, cherish, appreciate and defend our our "things" , The Whites will always have a way of stealing our "best" 15 Likes 4 Shares |

I know the Brits will find a way to down play this revelation and have their way as usual. This is what Ms Adichie referred to as 'Nkali' in her famous ted talk, THE DANGER OF A SINGLE STORY. In a hundred years time if we are not careful our children might read about how the English taught all these original arts to Africa. Surely the can make any story the definitive story of any race or group. 7 Likes 1 Share |
