Haiti - Culture : Exhibition «Haiti, a people of artists» 10/07/2016 10:17:06 After having long been inspired by the French model excluding the proper values of popular culture, then influenced by the US occupation or attracted by the European taste, Haitian culture was forged in the twentieth century from the forms of expression of resistance mixing poetry, magic, religion and political commitment, through the most diverse artistic proposals. "In Haiti, painting has always been a traditional form of expression as evidenced by the murals and illustrations of religious inspiration some dating back to the eighteenth century," explains Patrice Dilly, collector and gallery owner passionate about Haitian art (Espace Loas ). Painters and Haitian artists are featured this summer in Lavandou (Var, France) in the exhibition "Haiti, a people of artists", which presents from July 9 to September 11, 2016, nearly 80 works of several artists of different generations.
