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. Edouard Duval-Carrié was born in Port-au-Prince.

He later attended the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, France, from 1988 to 1989. 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
