Saint-Jean, Fritz 1954- Fritz Saint-Jean was born in 1954 in Port-au-Prince. Since he started painting in 1972 with the Sanon brothers at the Galerie Monnin he has stayed loyal to his love of animals and people in fantastic, almost surrealistic backgrounds of imaginary colors. His canvases are well-constructed dreams. His continuous progress has put him among the best primitive-modern artists of Haiti. Since 1988 he has lived between New York and Port-au-Prince. In 1983 he and St. Jean won first prize for designing a poster for the Air France Concord.
