Collection: Bernard Séjourné (Haitian, 1947-1994)

Bernard Séjourné (1947–1994) was a Haitian painter and sculptor born in Port-au-Prince and a leading figure of the School of Beauty, a movement celebrating women as symbols of elegance and grace. His refined Haitian paintings often depict graceful female figures and flowers rendered with fluid lines and harmonious color. Working primarily with acrylic on large Masonite panels, Séjourné created compositions that balance cool tonalities with vibrant tropical hues, giving his work rhythm and movement. Art historian Gérald Alexis noted in Peintres Haïtiens(2000) that Séjourné’s mastery of space and volume produces works approaching abstraction. His paintings were exhibited internationally, including the Festival of Black Art in Dakar (1966) and Expo 67 in Montreal, and remain highly sought after by collectors of modern Haitian art.Explore available Bernard Séjourné paintings below.
