The two companies previously held a combined exhibition from Oct. 6 to Oct. 9.

Under the slogan "Planting Seeds of Culture on Friendship," a total of 110 works, including paintings and sculptures by 22 Nigerian artists were displayed at the event.

Collaboration between the two companies, an exchange of artists' artworks between Korea and Nigeria and regular joint exhibitions are planned. It will be carried out in various fields such as original artwork and digital art using blockchain technology.
