Azu Nwagbogu, founder of the Lagos Photo Festival and the African Artists’ foundation, is passionate about providing access to art for all. From his home in Lagos, he talks to Danielle Radojcin about his rejection of elitism in art and how to uncover previously untold stories through the restitution of cultural heritage to Africa. He also believes Coronavirus has been a great leveller, signalling the end of ‘shopping mall’ art fairs and allowing for the emergence of digital innovations allowing anyone to access art from their home.
