Edouard Duval-Carrié
The Vision - Surreal Black Female Portrait

1986

About the Item

This earlier work depicts an unexpected multicolored cone extending from the subject's eye. It represents a field of vision for a young Haitian female who gazes up. It reminds me of something Man Ray or the Dadaists did. Duval-Carrié's work is more than eye-opening. Signed lower right Work is framed - Framed Size - 18 x 22 Edouard Duval-Carrié (born 1954) is a Haitian-born American contemporary painter and sculptor based in Miami, Florida.

He resided in France for many years and currently lives in Miami, Florida.[1] "I didn't want to go back to Haiti because of the political turmoil there. I have two kids," he explains.[1] Instead, he resides among Miami's substantial Haitian immigrant population and maintains cultural ties to his homeland.[1] His works have been exhibited in Europe and the Americas Duval-Carrié's art reflects the culture and history of Haiti with references to the Vodou religion

Haitian Couple in Bed Simultaneously Adjusting their Radios, Surrealism
By Wilson Bigaud
Located in Miami, FL
Wilson Bigaud is an idea artist in who showcases visual ideas in many of his paintings. In this work, a married Haitian couple tunes their radios in sync as they lie in bed. Bigaud was greatly interested in radios, which appeared in many of his works. This work rises to the level of Surrealism in that Bigaud is doing more than just depicting a normal bedroom moment. There is something very strange and bizarre in the couple's synchronized actions. Also of note, it looks like the woman is swallowing the edge of the radio. Signed lower right in a handmade and hand-painted frame. Wear to the edges of board, including delamination in the corners, some dents and losses. Frame rubbing with associated wear.
