Adefolakunmi Adenugba

Working in the art world exposed Adefolakunmi Adenugba to the need for an art advisory focused on cultural stewardship of Black contemporary art. In 2018, she launched ISE-DA to cultivate a generation of Black art collectors, and since its founding, ISE-DA has worked with collectors and gallerists globally for advisory support. ISE-DA was selected as a cultural partner for Carnegie Hall’s city-wide Afrofuturism festival in 2022, and Adenugba herself has been a panelist in Miami Art Week and has been featured on PBS to explore the definition and activism of Afrofuturism.
