Edouard Duval-Carrié

Edouard Duval-Carrié (1954- ) is a Haitian-American mixed-media painter and sculptor whose art focuses on the overlooked prosperity of Haitian culture, its complex sociopolitical history, and Vodun—an African diasporic religion based in Haiti and other parts of the West Indies. ⁠The surreal settings interpret Haitian history and the present. Using translucent mediums, such as glitter, glass, and resin, he invites visitors to reflect on the multiplex histories within Haiti.  Duval-Carrié studied at the Université de Montréal and McGill University in Canada before graduating with a BA from Loyola College, Montréal in 1978. He later attended the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, France, from 1988 to 1989.
