Sterling One, launched its contemporary art gallery on the topmost floor of<br />

the financial institution’s private banking lounge in Lekki Phase 1, Lekki with<br />

an exclusive three-day event from May 28 – 30, 2016.<br />

The event had art on display by artistes like Tolu Aliki, Olumide Onadipe<br />

and Ufuoma Evuarherhe, all curated by contemporary art space, Rele Gallery.<br />

Against the backdrop of art, guests were feted with exquisite culinary<br />

treats from Artist & Scientist, champagne from Fat Bastard, a soulful string<br />

quartet; serenaded by a jazz act and were read to by two of Nigeria’s foremost<br />

performance poets and authors, Efe Paul Azino and Toni Kan. Soul singer, Timi<br />

Dakolo delivered an impromptu yet entertaining performance with the string<br />

quartet.<br />

Complementing the art and literature at the event, was a fashion presentation<br />

by Grey and Gozel Green. Grey showcased its 2016 Spring/Summer pieces<br />

with etches of doll-like illustrations, laser cut technique and exaggerated largerthan-life<br />

bows. Gozel Green showcased simple & tribal silhouettes, filled with<br />

blocked colours, showing off a subtle rawness.<br />
