ABSTRACT

Osogbo, the capital of Osun State of Nigeria, has become very popular as a centre of art and culture in Yorubaland for many years. Both traditional and contemporary art forms are kept alive in the town but the attention of the outside world has been focused mainly on the latter while the major aspect of the former, the festival of images, has been conspicuously neglected.
