Clinton Kirkpatrik's Green Lake (Victoria in 2012) is up at the Nairobi National Gallery till end of May.

Clinton Kirkpatrick's Dancing on the Edge of the World is also up at the Nairobi National Museum
Boniface Maina will have something to say about almost everything and everyone at his exhibition 'Finding Voice' which he's having jointly with Michael Musyoka at  Village Market from this coming Friday.
Michael Musyoka's Maua (Flower) is sadly on its side in this image but it's still striking and u can see  more when he and Boni open at Village Market this friday assisted by The Little art Gallery.

Who's missing from this week's showcase is Kyalo Justus, Chuma Pascal, Onyis Martin, Anthony Russell, Xavier Verhorst, Dale Webster, the visiting Nigerian artist at Kuona, the graffiti artists led by Uhuru B and several others I cant  quite recall at this moment...But all of these artists named are exhibiting somewhere around the town such that Nairobi is becoming a serious art venue that is an exciting place to be. Welcome!
