John Olympio

John Olympio states that "When I paint I don't think - it's like a dream and you can't plan what you dream," he explains. To keep the connection with the spirits of his home land, he works only with pigment from his native country, Togo.

He comments, "The pigments communicate well with me and are from the earth."

The exhibit 'Something from Nothing', which he initially named 'Everything and Nothing', reflects on one of his life philosophies.

Investing in Africa

In the talk that opened TEDGlobal 2007 ("Africa: The Next Chapter"), South African investment banker Euvin Naidoo sets the scene, framing the conversation that would unfold over the four-day event. "What's the worst thing you've heard about Africa?" he asks. After fielding call-outs of "famine," "war," "corruption," he urges the audience to move past these preconceptions -- and offers a compelling picture of a continent on the cusp of enormous change.

Bono on Africa

Musician and activist Bono accepts the 2005 TED Prize with a riveting talk, arguing that aid to Africa isn't just another celebrity cause; it's a global emergency. He argues passionately that mere charity won't solve the serious problems facing the world's second-largest continent. The solution, he says, is equal human rights. And it isn't just our moral obligation; it's an economic and strategic necessity. He ends by unveiling his TED Prize wishes, calling for TED's help to build a new social movement for Africa.
