Edouard DUVAL-CARRIE

Edouard Duval Carrié has brought a poetic vision of the wildly misunderstood country of Haiti.
In this painting Edouard Duval Carrié let's us in his mysterious garden, a secret garden in which you can feel the mysticism of Haiti. A place where nature and spirits are one.
"Apparition dans un jardin" , 1991, is a glance in a world that could be resumed in a phrase by the poet Leon Laleau: "The colonist too, are our ancestors, as much so as the Africans who have filled the entire country side with their Gods."
Edouard Duval Carrié has been a strong leader of Haitian Art in Haiti and mostly around the world. Through his art he has been telling the fantastic story of Haiti, cleverly using his imagination and talent. He is the soul heir of the magical palette of colors used by the late masters, Rigaud Benoit and Philome Obin among others.
