Description

Les Gardiens de la Terre Rouge (Guardians of the Red Earth) is an original 2026 painting by Philippe Dodard. A half-lit mask stands watch over a field of saturated red, a color that echoes the title and the earth itself. One side of the face is dark and weathered, while the other opens into a steady blue eye. Around it, grids of turquoise, yellow, crimson and black build up in dense, scraped layers, and drips run down the lower half like rain on stained glass. The mix of ritual presence and raw gesture is typical of Dodard’s work. Born in Port-au-Prince in 1954, he is one of the most recognized voices in Haitian contemporary art, known for paintings that draw on Vodou imagery, memory and Haitian identity. This piece is signed and dated Dodard 26 at the lower right. Its condition is excellent. We will provide a Certificate of Authenticity.

About this artist

Philippe Dodard (b. 1954, Port-au-Prince, Haiti) is a Haitian painter, graphic artist, and multidisciplinary creator known for angular, architectonic compositions that organize space without traditional perspective. Trained at the PotoMitan Art School under Jean-Claude “Tiga” Garoute, Patrick Vilaire, and Frido Casimir, he later studied at the Academy of Fine Arts and specialized in graphic design in Bordeaux, France. Dodard’s work blends structure, rhythm, and symbolic abstraction, reflecting his background in graphic design and visual communication. His practice extends beyond painting to include sculpture, ironwork, and jewelry, creating a distinctive modern Haitian aesthetic. His work has been exhibited internationally across Europe and the Americas and has influenced fashion and contemporary art, notably inspiring Donna Karan’s Spring 2012 collection. Today, Dodard’s work is highly sought after for its originality, design clarity, and cross-disciplinary appeal.
