Asake Bomani began collecting art in 1972, driven by the realization that while her own hands might not make the work, her eye and passion could help amplify the brilliance of others. Her approach has always been rooted in an artist’s mindset—valuing technique, craft, and emotional impact above market trends. She collects what moves her, often long before institutions or collectors recognize an artist’s cultural significance. Her private collection spans over 100 works across decades from notable artists.
