LAGOS, NIGERIA – November 2026
INSPIRO the Creative Economy Strategy and Development company, announces ART ATTACK 2026 – A Contemporary Art Experience, an INSPIRO-owned initiative presented in partnership with FREEDOM PARK'S RETURN TO EDEN 2, the grand reopening celebration marking the Park's rebirth and formal reopening this December.
Running from December 1 to 31, 2026, ART ATTACK will bring together a diverse community of artists, collectors, creatives and art enthusiasts in a month-long celebration of visual arts, creativity and cultural expression.
Anchored on the philosophy that ART BELONGS TO EVERYONE, ART ATTACK is conceived as a people's art event that seeks to take art beyond conventional gallery spaces, make original artworks more accessible, create opportunities for emerging and established artists, and encourage wider public appreciation of contemporary art.
Recognising the considerable untapped commercial and cultural potential of Nigeria's visual arts sector, ART ATTACK seeks to bridge the gap between artists, collectors and the general public, creating opportunities to discover, experience, appreciate and acquire original works of art.
MORE THAN AN EXHIBITION: AN IMMERSIVE ART EXPERIENCE
ART ATTACK 2026 will showcase diverse creative expressions, including paintings, sculpture, photography, ceramics, mixed media and art installations. The programme will also feature live art demonstrations, workshops, art sales, talks and creative conversations.
Beyond the exhibition of artworks, the experience will encourage interaction, learning, discovery and creative exchange, providing participating artists with opportunities to engage new audiences and connect with potential buyers.
CALL FOR ARTISTS: SHOWCASE YOUR ART. MAKE ART ACCESSIBLE.
ART ATTACK 2026 invites artists to submit between three and five artworks for consideration and possible exhibition. Submissions are welcome across painting, photography and other two-dimensional works, sculpture and pottery.
Artist participation is FREE, subject to review and selection. Paintings, photography and other two-dimensional works must not exceed 24 x 30 inches, including frame, while sculpture and pottery must not exceed 30 inches in height, including base.

A CULTURAL DECEMBER CELEBRATION
Through its partnership with Freedom Park's RETURN TO EDEN 2 – THE REBIRTH OF FREEDOM PARK LAGOS, ART ATTACK will form part of a wider Cultural December programme featuring several events and activities celebrating culture, heritage, creativity and community engagement.
Freedom Park, with its historic significance and cultural identity, provides a fitting setting for these collaborative initiatives, creating opportunities to celebrate creative expression, preserve cultural heritage and introduce contemporary art and other forms of creativity to broader and more diverse audiences.
ADVANCING NIGERIA'S CREATIVE ECONOMY
For INSPIRO the inaugural ART ATTACK represents both a celebration of its 25th Anniversary and an extension of its commitment to developing Nigeria's creative economy through platforms that enable talent, creativity and original ideas to find expression, generate value and create economic opportunities.
ART ATTACK is curated by Arto Studio & Soloadynamic and powered by INSPIRO PRODUCTIONS, whose broader vision is to enable creativity to find expression, create value and generate wealth.
ART ATTACK 2026 invites artists, collectors, art enthusiasts, corporate organisations, cultural institutions and the general public to participate in an initiative that celebrates creativity, expands access to the arts and creates new possibilities for the visual arts community.
