---------- Forwarded message ----------
Quoting Galeriedartnader@aol.com:


Philippe  Dodard is born in 1954 in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. He studied at
the
Poto-Mitan Art School  and then entered the Academy of Fine  Arts. In
1974, he
worked as a layout artist in an  advertising agency, met with Frantz
Ewald,
and founded a studio of  audiovisual graphic art. In 1975, Dodard was
awarded
first prizes  for a poster on the handicapped and a poster for the
Haitian Art
Festival. He  worked as an advertising illustrator for the Haitian
newspaper
Le  Nouvelliste. In 1978, he received a  scholarship to the
International
School in Bordeaux, enabling him to  specialize in pedagogic drawing. In
1982, he
designed a stained glass window for  the Methodist church of Bird
College.
Two years later he received  a scholarship from the Rotary International

Foundation and left on tour the  Group Study Exchange of Haiti to give
conferences on
Haitian culture. Between  1971 and now, Dodard  exhibited in Haiti,
Surinam
, Brazil, France and the United States namely Galerie d'Art  Nader in
Coral
Gables, Florida.
Dodard's work as a graphic artist undoubtedly explains the angular
aspect of
the subjects  he fits into a space without  perspective.  As an
international
renowned Haitian  painter his name and art  are mentioned is all major
Haitian art books namely â?? La Peinture  Haitienneâ?? by Marie-Jose
Nadal & Gerald
Bloncourt;â?? La Rencontre des 2  Mondesâ?? by Jean-Marie Drot; â??Haiti
et Ses
Peintresâ?? by Michel Philippe  Lerebours; and â??Peintres  Haitiensâ??
by Gerald
Alexis. His art is well  appreciated among art collectors and lovers all
over the
world.
