Artists Alliance Gallery
Essential three-storey arts centre.
The hugely respected Ghanaian artist Ablade Glover established this renowned arts venue, which has become one of the most important of its kind in Ghana. There are three expansive floors of art displayed in cool marble galleries. Look out for collectors’ pieces: Asafo flags with appliquéd and embroidered symbols, ancient strip-woven kente cloths by the Akan and Ewe, African masks of the type that inspired Picasso, and intricately carved furniture. Also on show are full-sized coffins in the shape of crabs, running shoes and eagles. Everything is for sale.
