释义 |
Kobina Nyarko is one of Ghana's premier young contemporary artists.{{citation needed|date=November 2013}} Born March 14, 1972 in Takoradi, Ghana, much of Nyarko's recent work explores the symbolism of fish in paintings that feature numerous tiny fish on often large-scale canvases. This "trademark" theme makes his work easy to recognize. Nyarko was formally trained at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology. He graduated in 2003 with a BA in Industrial Art. In May 2007, Kobina Nyarko was featured in an exhibition at the San Diego Museum of Man, Artists Speak: Contemporary art from Ghana and Zimbabwe. His work is considered to be illustrative of 3rd generation Ghanaian artists, who freely express themselves as artists in a modern world, without succumbing to restrictive notions of African art.{{citation needed|date=November 2013}} Personal lifeKobina Nyarko currently lives in Takoradi with his wife and son.
