ANTIQUE / VINTAGE HAITIAN FOLK ART OIL PAINTING SIGNED JOE VODOU VOODOO DANCING CEREMONY AFRICAN AMERICAN ART 1920's-1960's
I AM THRILLED TO OFFER,
A BEAUTIFUL AND RARE VINTAGE (1920's-1960's) HAITIAN OIL PAINTING SIGNED BY THE ARTIST "JOE". THIS BEAUTIFUL MUSEUM QUALITY PAINTING DEPICTS A RELIGIOUS VODOU / VOODOO DANCING CEREMONY BEING PERFORMED. THE CANVAS MEASURES 12" x 16". IT IS RELATIVELY EASY TO LOOK AT A MASTERFULLY CREATED EARLY HAITIAN ART PIECE AND SEE HOW IT INFLUENCED AFRICAN AMERICAN ART. THE CULTURAL AND RELIGIOUS BASIS OF BOTH ART FORMS ARE ROOTED FROM THE SAME SOURCES, AFRICA.
THIS WONDERFUL PAINTING COMES FRAMED IN WHAT I BELIEVE IS ORIGINAL TO THE PIECE. THE PAINTING IS SIGNED IN THE LOWER LEFT BY THE ARTIST JOE. I AM NOT SURE WHICH JOE THIS ARTIST MAY BE, BUT IT IS VERY EVIDENT THAT HE WAS AN EARLY HAITIAN ARTIST WHO WAS INDEED TRUE TO THE FORM AND CULTURE. HE SIGNS HIS NAME WITH AN ATTACHED SYMBOL.
THIS GORGEOUS PAINTING SHOULD BE HANGING IN A MUSEUM! IT WOULD MAKE A GREAT ADDITION TO ANY FINE ART COLLECTION! THIS ONE OF A KIND EARLY HAITIAN MASTERPIECE WILL BE RESPECTED FOR IT'S TECHNIQUE AND POWERFUL SUBJECT MATTER! BUY WITH EXTREME CONFIDENCE! YOU WILL ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!
