He will be joined in conversation by Guillermina De Ferrari, a curator, critic, and scholar whose work focuses on modern and contemporary Caribbean culture.Forced into exile as a youth during the regime of François Duvalier, Duval-Carrié lived and worked across the Caribbean, North America, and Europe before settling in Miami in the mid-1990s. This transnational trajectory has informed a sustained engagement with histories of migration, displacement, and cultural memory that spans his entire artistic practice. Working across painting, sculpture, and installation, Duval-Carrié has developed intricate visual languages that draw from Haitian history, Vodou symbolism, and the enduring legacies of colonialism, often employing reflective and translucent materials to create spatially immersive environments.Duval-Carrié’s practice also extends beyond the studio through a significant civic and institutional presence in South Florida, contributing to the development of Miami’s cultural landscape through exhibitions, collaborations, and public commissions, including major projects along the Miami Riverwalk and other key sites.ABOUT THE SPEAKERSA key figure in advancing Haitian art internationally, Edouard Duval-Carrié participated in Haiti’s first national pavilion at the 54th Venice Biennale (2011) and was named a Chevalier of France’s Ordre des Arts et des Lettres (2014). Duval-Carrié’s work excavates histories of revolution and exile, Vodou cosmologies, and colonial afterlives, mobilizing Haiti’s intellectual and spiritual traditions as living frameworks for the present. His work was included in documenta XV (2022) as part of the Atis Rezistans / Ghetto Biennale constellation. Most recently, Duval-Carrié has been invited to participate in the 61st Venice Biennale (2026), further affirming his stature as a leading voice connecting Haiti’s revolutionary histories to contemporary global art.Guillermina De Ferrari is a Guggenheim Fellow and distinguished scholar of Caribbean literature and visual culture, whose research-driven curatorial practice bridges archives, memory, and contemporary art. Her work has advanced critical frameworks for understanding Caribbean and Haitian cultural production within broader transnational and postcolonial debates. De Ferrari is the author of Vulnerable States: Bodies of Memory in Contemporary Caribbean Fiction (University of Virginia Press, 2007) and the forthcoming Broken Tropics: Contingency in Contemporary Caribbean Art. Her curatorial and academic work includes directing the Center for Visual Cultures at the University of Wisconsin–Madison (2014–2018), as well as organizing exhibitions, publications, and symposia that have significantly shaped discourse in the field.ABOUT OOLITE ARTS CONVERSATIONSConceived as a platform for critical exchange, Oolite Arts Conversations reflects Oolite Arts’ commitment to supporting artists while advancing the knowledge and practice of contemporary visual arts.Oolite Arts Conversations is organized by Rina Carvajal, Senior Director of Programs at Oolite Arts.
