Anthony Nsofor has worked consistently in Painting and Photography since graduating from the Arts Department of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka. He also was a gallery manager at the African Foundation for the Arts, Lagos, and as an Art teacher at Whitesands School, Lagos. He also worked briefly as an art writer for The Comet Newspapers, Lagos, and has written essays for several publications. His writing career led to him creating a personal blog in 2008.

 He has exhibited locally and internationally (and frequently participated in the last two decades of exhibitions of artists from the new Uli School). In 2012, he had a significant solo exhibition at the Pan Atlantic University featuring paintings, sound, and photographs.

In 2015, he relocated his studio from Lagos to Oguta, his hometown.  An avid traveler, he is fascinated by the cultural conversations happening everywhere. Nsofor's works ask questions of nationality, migration, and identity stereotypes one encounters in other spaces. There is the politics of space- of systemic lines separating people as superior or inferior beings.

Anthony Nsofor is creating more collages and working on building layers of meaning through the transposition and projection of images on a surface. He is fascinated by the idea of telling an open-ended story. Presently he is exploring the possibilities of Sound and Video as media for creative work. Since 2022, Anthony has become a resident artist at the Torpedo Factory Art Center. He is the Vice President of the Board of the Torpedo Factory Artists Association, Alexandria, Virginia.
