Krabhouse Gallery
About us
At Krabhouse Gallery, we celebrate the richness of African art by curating and showcasing extraordinary works by both renowned and emerging artists from across the continent. Founded in Lagos in 1991, our story is one of passion, perseverance, and a deep commitment to preserving and promoting African creativity.
What started as a young artist’s dream evolved into a hub for African artistry. Our founder’s journey began by creating silhouette portraits as a way to support his family and education, which grew into a lifelong devotion to art. Today, Krabhouse Gallery stands as a testament to that dream, housing a collection of exquisite, one-of-a-kind pieces that embody the spirit and culture of Africa.
Every artwork in our gallery is fully owned by us, ensuring that proceeds directly support the artists and the continuous growth of our collection. This allows us to reinvest in the preservation of African art while fostering the next generation of talent.
Over the years, we’ve taken African art to the world, exhibiting in major cities across Europe, North America, Asia, and Africa. From trade fairs to exclusive showcases, we’ve connected with collectors, art enthusiasts, and dignitaries, sharing the profound stories behind every piece.
Whether you're a seasoned collector or discovering African art for the first time, Krabhouse Gallery offers a curated experience that connects you to the heart of Africa's artistic legacy.
