FOREVER: MURAL BY ODILI DONALD ODITA

In honor of NOMA’s centennial, Odili Donald Odita has been commissioned to create a site-specific mural for the museum’s McDermott Lobby.

Odita, born in Nigeria and now based in Philadelphia, is well known for his hard-edged abstract paintings and murals in bright colors. His works reflect his African heritage, for they are reminiscent of African textiles, but Odita also draws inspiration from contemporary media-centered culture as well as the duality of growing up in both Nigeria and America.
