Vision Blue
The public’s perception of voodoo rites and rituals seems often to point to the evil or malicious side of things. There are healing spells, nature spells, love spells, purification spells, joyous celebration spells.

Spirits may be invoked to bring harmony and peace, birth and rebirth, increased abundance of luck, material happiness, renewed health.The fact is, for those who believe it, voodoo is powerful. It is also empowering.

Agwe
Burton Chenet is a steady and conscientious worker, an artist to whom painting means permanent inquiry.

Unlike the Haitian naive painters who inspired him, he does not approach his subjects as a believer but rather as an aesthete. He knows no duality: he advances quietly, to explore the immense resources and artistic wealth of his native land. His work attracts, intrigues and raises thoughts and interrogations, while expecting the visitors to find for themselves the keys to open the doors of his artistic universe

His paintings are, above all, a look on his artistic environment, on certain painters who have made a mark on their time and increasingly influenced the young modern painters.

Burton Chenet is the product of two cultures. He studied Fine Arts in the United States and now lives in Haiti. His aesthetic curiosity has kept him in touch with the different schools in the country and has led him to reflect upon their many similarities and differences, mainly differences due to the very rich contribution of so many cultures.

Apparition
Zephirin´s work is characterized by intense colors, intricate patterns and tightly surrounded compositions.

Extremely productive, his imagination is compelling and his social criticism is disturbing. Presently Zephirin´s work is recognizable by human figures with animal heads--representing his deep contempt for the commanding body.

Welcome
Saint Soleil was located in the mountains above LaBoule, at Soisson-La- Montagne. It provided the means and encouragement for not only painters, but also poets, writers, craftspeople, singers, dancers, sculptors and musicians.

The movement received international attention after the visit in 1975 of Andre Malraux, who was so impressed with the place that he devoted a chapter in his last book, L´Intemporel, to Saint Soleil. Exil is also one of the five members of Cinq Soleil, the group of artists that reformed in the late 1980's.

George
The Saint Soleil group began around 1973 as a peasant commune run by a French and a Haitian intellectual who left the country in 1979.

Five of the artists of the Saint Soleil group stayed together and are still painting in an almost modern style of spirits and loas floating freely across the canvas.

Diable Soleil - SOLD
A taciturn, introverted youth, Duffaut lived through an unhappy childhood ruled by an incompetent mother, with drawing as his only expressive outlet.

He recounted that the Virgin Mary appeared to him in a dream at La Gonave Island, leading him to produce an ornamental sculpture for the chapel dedicated to her. A poet and mystic, he might be said to be a painter of dreams depicting his hopes and beliefs, as exemplified by his famous painting Virgin on the Mountain Top. Rigaud Benoit and a group of artists went to Jacmel to look for new talent and found Duffaut . During the night he had a dream: the Virgin appeared to him with outstretched hands perched on the summit of a mountain and she told him to paint his city Jacmel. Duffaut joined the Art Center in 1948. In 1951, he painted a mural at the Holy Trinity Cathedral. Duffaut strives to reconstruct a frantic reality: winding vertical streets and delicate and colorful houses constructed at the turn of the century that characterize Jacmel. Not leaving anything to chance, he writes on his painting the names of the buildings: school, customs, police, and hospital. The effect is striking. His innate sense of composition, genius of colors and pictorial clumsiness make his first works masterpieces of naive art.
