Friends of the Arts’ (Fota) annual art exhibition at the International School of Kenya (ISK) in Nairobi has been a favourite event for Kenyan artists who appreciate the chance to show their works in a space in which it is not only well hung; it is also where at least half of the works are sure to sell.
At Fota, organisers normally advise the artists to keep their prices at a minimum. However this year, the prices set by the artists rose significantly and so did the quality of the work.
