Roosevelt Sanon
Roosevelt Sanon is a Haitian artist who was
born in 1951 in Jacmel to Bejamine Jean-
Pierre Sanon and Clément Sanon. He began
painting at age 17 with no instruction. He later
received mentoring from Raphaël Surin and
others. His siblings Lamar and Jeannet Sanon
are also painters. When he was 23, Sanon was
the grand prizewinner in an art competition
sponsored by the German embassy in Haiti
and the Musée d’Art Haïtien. Afterwards, he
traveled to Germany to study the work of
European artists. From 1979 to 1985, Sanon
has exhibited his work in France, Switzerland,
England and Haiti between 1979 and 1985. 
Some of his work is displayed in the Haitian
embassy in Washington, DC.
His better known pieces include: A river runs
through it, Mapou tree and The walking tree.
