    Wilson Bigaud Haitian, (1931-2010) Celebration oil on board Signed lower right. Biography from the Archives of askART: It was the legendary Hector Hyppolite who first introduced Wilson Bigaud to le Centre d'Art. A former child prodigy, Bigaud had presented himself as a carver and sculptor, but was introduced to two-dimensional formats by DeWitt Peters. Bigaud soon described himself as a memory painter; and his upbringing amidst the rough and tumble of the city had clearly inspired his imaginings. Social gambling, Vodou ceremonies and local melodramas were ripe subject-matter for his visual investigations, executed with fearless verve and wit. So significant were Bigaud's abilities, that his monumental mural The Wedding of Cana was considered to be the most dynamic at the Episcopal Cathedral in Port-au-Prince. Bigaud's paintings found their inevitable fame. Yet the pressure of success affected their author. Bigaud grew increasingly uncomfortable and took a series of breaks from art making, returning to it only in his later years. He is today considered one of the greats of le Centre d'Art, with works at the Museum of Modern Art, including the legendary Murder in the Jungle (1950).

    Market scene with figures inspecting a catch of fresh fish, oil on canvas, signed lower right. Housed in a hand-carved Haitian frame. Lot includes a book illustrated by Wilson Bigaud in 1952, entitled 'Market Day For Ti Andre'. Wilson Bigaud joined the Centre d'Art in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, in 1946, and is considered a first generation Haitian master. He was a major contributor to the St. Trinity Cathedral murals with his masterpiece The Wedding at Cana. His work is included in the Museum of Modern Art collection. Between 1957 and 1961 he suffered a series of nervous breakdowns, and was unable to paint. Over time he recovered and was able to enjoy a second flourishing career. Very few artists of any era have approached Bigaud's ability to render the beat, the humor, the exuberance of everyday life that makes Haiti so unique. Overall size: 24 1/2 x 28 1/2 in. Sight size: 19 x 23 in.

    Wilson Bigaud Haitian, (1931-2010) Still Life with tropical fruit harvest and art oil on canvas Signed lower right. Biography from the Archives of askART: WILSON BIGAUD 1931-2010 (Port-au-Prince, Haiti) It was the legendary Hector Hyppolite who first introduced Wilson Bigaud to le Centre d'Art. A former child prodigy, Bigaud had presented himself as a carver and sculptor, but was introduced to two-dimensional formats by DeWitt Peters. Bigaud soon described himself as a memory painter; and his upbringing amidst the rough and tumble of the city had clearly inspired his imaginings. Social gambling, Vodou ceremonies and local melodramas were ripe subject-matter for his visual investigations, executed with fearless verve and wit. So significant were Bigaud's abilities, that his monumental mural The Wedding of Cana was considered to be the most dynamic at the Episcopal Cathedral in Port-au-Prince. Bigaud's paintings found their inevitable fame. Yet the pressure of success affected their author. Bigaud grew increasingly uncomfortable and took a series of breaks from art making, returning to it only in his later years. He is today considered one of the greats of le Centre d'Art, with works at the Museum of Modern Art, including the legendary Murder in the Jungle (1950).
