An apparent ode to the African diaspora via Haiti, this work reflects the artist's early interest in finding a contemporary form of historical painting. Radcliffe Bailey revisited the subject of Haiti with a 2007 installation in NeoHooDoo: Art for a Forgotten Faith, curated by the Menil Collection Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art, Franklin Sirmans.
Born in Bridgeton, NJ, Bailey received a B.F.A. from Atlanta College of Art in 1991, where he lives and works today. His work has been included in numerous museum exhibitions, including the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, the Tate, Liverpool, the Studio Museum in Harlem and the High Museum of Art, Atlanta. His work is in numerous public and private collections, including the Columbus Museum, the Art Institute of Chicago, and the Smithsonian Institution, Washington, DC.
