This is Room 23 Haitian Art by Fritzner Chery.
Fritzner Chery was born in Bainet, Haiti on April 14, 1947. He came to Port-au-Prince at age 10 and studied to be an auto mechanic after completing school. In 1963 he began working at the Galerie Monnin on the Grand Rue as a framer. In 1986 he began painting, inspired by his neighbor, the painter Paul Beauvoir and by J. E. Gourgue, a friend. He lost interest after one year or so but continued to work at the gallery . In 1997 he began to paint again and has developed into one of the best of the dwindling number of untrained Haitian artists, although he has not yet quit his day job, perhaps because he has twelve children.
