Uche Okeke was born on April 30, 1933 in Nimo, Anambra State, Nigeria. He was one of the leaders of the Zaria Art Society, 1958–1961, which changed the course of Nigerian art since the late fties. He founded Asele Institute (Nimo) in 1959. From 1962 to 1963 he studied in Munich while travelling in Germany and visiting art schools, academies, museums, and theatres. Coming back to Nigeria, he joined with the Mbari Club and his centre became the Mbari Art Centre under his directorship. After the Civil War, Uche Okeke was invited to join the Department of Fine Arts (now Fine and Applied Arts) at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka and he subsequently served as department head and developed the art collections and documents of Asele Institute at its permanent headquarters in Nimo. Uche Okeke has exhibited extensively in Africa, Europe, Asia and the Americas, and has also travelled in Africa, Europe and the United States.
