Clement Ademola Williams is a painter and printmaker whose career reflects a deep engagement with Nigerian and international modernism. He studied Fine Arts at Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria (1976), Bradford College, United Kingdom (BA, 1980), and the University of Benin (MFA,1994). From 1982 to 2012, Williams served at the University of Benin, where he contributed significantly to the development of Fine and Applied Arts as a senior lecturer.
In 1996–97 he was awarded the Fulbright African Senior Research Scholar Grant in the United States, an experience that further broadened his artistic scope. Williams has presented solo exhibitions in Lagos, New York, and Ibadan, and participated in notable group exhibitions at the National Gallery of Arts, Lagos; Skylight Gallery, Brooklyn; and Wangboje Gallery, Benin City. His works are represented in collections including the United States Information Service, Lagos; the State University of New York at Albany; and the Printmaking Workshop, New York.
Williams’ practice is distinguished by his mastery of etching and painting, where symbolic figuration and rhythmic abstraction converge to explore themes of cultural heritage and human experience.
