Description
Acrylic painting on canvas, 30"x30". 1990. Stivenson Magloire (1963-1994, Port-au-Prince, Haiti)   Stevenson Magloire (1963-1994) was an artist and painter from Haiti. He was an important contributor to the School of Saint Soleil art movement. His paintings are bold and expressionistic, frequently incorporating people, birds, and vodou and Christian symbolism. Magloire was the son of another famous Haitian artist, Louisianne Saint-Fleurant. Already a collectable artist by the mid-1990s, Magloire was assassinated on October 9, 1994. He was stoned to death by paramilitary attachés of the Raoul Cédras military junta while walking on the street in Port-au-Prince. His death was memorialized by his friend, Richard A. Morse, in the ballad Ayizan, released by the rasin band RAM on their second album, Puritan Vodou, in 1997. This piece was bought in an art gallery in Petionville, near Port-au-Prince in 2006.
