Alex Igiozee is a sculptor represented in the Nwuba Art Collection by a large group of wood carvings. No reliable public information about him could be found online: searches for the name, with and without 'sculptor' and 'wood', returned no gallery page, exhibition record, press article or auction listing. The surname suggests a possible Edo (Benin) background, where there is a strong tradition of wood and bronze carving, but this is a guess and should not be stated as fact. Because the collection holds many of his works, the collector is probably one of the best sources on this artist. Staff should record his biography directly from him or from whoever brokered the works: full name, year and place of birth, training (formal art school or apprenticeship in a carving workshop), the wood species he uses, and any exhibitions or commissions. That record would also help support provenance and valuation later.
