Mystical Imagination:

The Art of Haitian Master Hector Hyppolite

 at Ramapo College of New Jersey

 

This version of the traveling exhibition is larger than the Waterloo showing and features 29 works. The Ramapo presentation includes a significant number of loans from the prestigious private collection of Jonathan Demme which were not part of the original Summer 2009 Art Museum of the Americas exhibition in Washington

Numerous Haitian benefit concerts, educational programs and visiting artist events have been presented in conjunction with the Hyppolite exhibition at Ramapo College. 



On March 24, a complementary exhibition “Boundless Discourse” opens in the Berrie Center’s adjacent Kresge Gallery, and will continue on view through April 28. This inventive, contemporary Caribbean art project is curated by Dr. Rocio Aranda-Alvarado of Museo del Barrio and features 7 artists, mostly from Haiti and the Dominican Republic. “Boundless Discourse” shares the native region of Hector Hyppolite, and the artists reflect on narratives that address the close relationship between myth and reality, history and the present, and between the personal and the universal. 

An opening reception for “Boundless Discourse” and the continuing Hector Hyppolite exhibition will be held on Wednesday, March 24, from 5-7 p.m. A panel discussion on Hector Hyppolite and contemporary Caribbean art will be presented at 4 p.m. on March 24
th in the Adler Theater.  Artists’ talks will be presented at 6 p.m. in the Kresge Gallery.

Haitian art can always be found at Ramapo College. The Selden Rodman Collection of Popular Arts in B Wing continues on view on Tuesdays and Wednesdays through the Spring. The new installation showcases excellent works from the Morris/Svehla Collection and several beautiful recent gifts from Larry Kent, in addition to other new Rodman donations.

October 2 -- December 31, 2009 -- The Waterloo Center for the Arts in Waterloo, Iowa

Mystical Imagination
The Art of Haitian Master
Hector Hyppolite


Haitian master artist Hector Hyppolite managed to, in a career spanning less than four short years, create a startlingly original body of work and garner international attention and admiration among artists, critics and collectors, helping to set the stage for generations of Haitian artists to come. This exhibition, drawn from a recent retrospective which marked the 60th anniversary of the artist's death, presents a rare opportunity to view some seldom seen works from private and public collections.

This exhibition is supported by the Haitian Art Society, National and Washington DC Chapters
