Jean-Baptiste Bottex (1918 - 1979) - Lot 274
Jean-Baptiste Bottex (1918 - 1979) Calvary Chris, 70 Canvas Signed lower right and dated 40 x 50 cm (Misses) Jean-Baptiste Bottex, older brother of the renowned Seymour Bottex, distinguished himself as a naive painter, brilliantly capturing biblical themes and snapshots of everyday life in Haiti. His work has been exhibited both at the Centre d'Art in Haiti and internationally. This book, "Peinture Haitienne" by Marie Jose Nadal Gerald Bloncourt (Editions Nathan, 1986), mentions his unique talent. Although he collaborated with Philome Obin, a pioneering Haitian artist, the influence of Obin's northern school is subtle in his paintings. Jean-Baptiste also ran his own studio alongside his brother Seymour E. Bottex, where they trained numerous artists.
