From his first exhibition, at the Festival Arts gallery in Lalue, in 1984, he sold all his paintings. His style is then hyperrealist, favoring close-up portraits and insisting on the gaze. Shortly after, he operated a reversal, deconstructing the symmetry and harmony of his paintings, driven by the requirement to find his own language. Leader of contemporary art and pioneer of performance in Haiti, Mario Benjamin is known internationally. His artistic residencies, among others, take him to Europe, Asia and America. He regularly represents Haiti in many prestigious biennials In 2015, he participated in the inauguration of the Memorial Act in Guadeloupe. His work representing Toussaint, Dessalines, Christophe is part of the permanent collection of the museum in Point-à-Pitre. Mario Benjamin lives and works in Haiti. IH/ iciHaiti
