Herve Telemaque Art

French, Haitian, 1937-2022
Hervé Télémaque was a Haitian-born French artist (1937–2022) whose influential career spanned painting, collage, drawing, assemblage, and mixed media, and who lived and worked primarily in Paris from the early 1960s onward. Born in Port-au-Prince, he moved to New York in the late 1950s, studied at the Art Students League, and absorbed the languages of Abstract Expressionism, Surrealism, and Pop Art before relocating to France, where he played a central role in the Narrative Figuration movement alongside peers such as Bernard Rancillac and Öyvind Fahlström. Télémaque consistently developed a personal visual vocabulary that juxtaposed everyday objects, cultural symbols, and visual metaphors to explore social experience, identity, and power structures, often addressing themes of racism, colonialism, consumer culture, and personal history. His work has been shown in major retrospectives, including exhibitions at the Centre Pompidou and Serpentine Galleries, and is held in prestigious collections such as the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), reflecting his important contribution to late 20th-century modern and contemporary art.
