Edouard Duval-Carrié has installed his works all over the world. Although much of his work deals with memory, memory today is more symbolic, giving free rein to popular expression of gods and those who pertain to the temple. The figurative subject is no longer the hero, the real historical personage who freed the Haitian people from slavery. His characters belong more and more to dreams and fantasy. The compositions maintain the oscilliation between Baroque refinement and academic mastery but out of this link between magic and fantasy there is a continuation of the obsession with beauty based on rough, violent reality. Duval-Carrié provides us with myths and gods, metaphor and symbol in order to begin forgetting about disaster.
