Tolu Olasoji is currently exhibiting in Black Is the New Black, a group show at Art House Gallery curated by Bryant Small and featuring artists Daniel Jenkins, Kortez, Somina Mosaku, Tenjin Ikeda, and QRCKY. Bringing together six artists working in monochrome, the exhibition highlights the power of black and white as both material and metaphor.For this exhibition, Tolu presents photographs from his ongoing series Grey Pride alongside work from his book project Everything Comes to Bilal, pairing images of protest and queer solidarity with an intimate portrait of a community that has transcended its roots.Visitors can experience the installation in person at Art House Gallery. Tolu’s artworks from the Black is the New Black are presented digitally below.For curatorial or collection inquiries, reach out to [email protected] or click here to fill the form on this page.

About

Tolu Olasoji is an Emmy-winning photojournalist, visual artist, and digital storyteller whose work bridges documentary rigor and visual expression. Based in the New York–New Jersey area, his photography and reporting have appeared in Al Jazeera, VICE, Quartz, and The Washington Post. His practice explores culture, society, and current events through socially resonant, image-driven narratives.In 2025, his series Grey Pride was selected for Monmouth Museum’s exhibition accompanying the Smithsonian traveling show The Bias Inside Us in Lincroft, New Jersey, where it received an honorable mention. His drone photography of the 2023 train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio, created in collaboration with the Center for Contemporary Documentation and photojournalist Rebecca Kiger, provided critical aerial views of one of the year’s most significant environmental disasters. The work was featured in the exhibition From the Sky: New Perspectives on the Ohio River Valley at the Great Stone Viaduct in Bellaire, Ohio, supported by the Ohio Arts Council, and has been published in The Washington Post, including as the lead digital image and front-page photo for coverage of the derailment.
