Paintings by Haitian Artist

René Exumé

Rene Exume was born in 1929 in Petionville, Haiti. In 1948 he joined the Centre d'Art founded by Dewit Peters. Because of his aptitude, he was incorporated with the vanguardists and aside from his regular studies at the center,  he was a disciple of North  American painter W. Woldrock. Later, he was part of a dissatisfied group working in the basement who left and started the Foyer de Artes Plastiques in 1950 where they sold all of their works in their first exhibition.   Rene Exume was named professor of design. He helped many young artists by instructing children in drawing and painting techniques until the gallery closed in the late 1980's. He did not work with private galleries so his paintings are rarely on the open market.
One of Exume's paintings was featured in Jonathan Demme's book of Haitian art titled "Island on Fire".
