A series of art exhibitions were held at several venues, including the National Theatre, the Nigerian National Museum, and Tafawa Balewa Square, the latter providing a booth for each nation represented at the festival to exhibit their paintings, crafts, artwork, woven cloths, musical instruments, and books. These exhibits included the likes of Ekpo Eyo\u2019s <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2000 Years of Nigerian Art<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and<\/span> <i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Africa and the Origin of Man<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another showcased African architectural technology and incorporated illustrations, paintings, and variety of architectural models and themes. Along with these endless exhibitions of visual art and culture, many artistic luminaries and musicians attended from around the globe including, among others, Miriam Makeba from South Africa,<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mighty Sparrow from Trinidad and Tobago,<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bembeya Jazz National from Guinea,<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gilberto Gil from Brazil, and<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stevie Wonder from the United States.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During the first two weeks, over 700 writers, scholars and artists participated in a series of lectures focused on the plight of Africa\u2019s developing nations, their ongoing lack of intellectual freedom, and the post-colonial neglect they face in the international realm. However, the more specific focus of this colloquium was the fostering and support of Black artists, their international imaging, and their\u00a0access to international outlets.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The festival was widely regarded a major success. Not long after its last day,<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the Center for Black and African Arts and Civilization was formed, opening branches in Lagos and three other cities upon the institution of a Nigerian trust to manage the artifacts of the African countries and communities in attendance.
