About this artist
About this artist
Jean-Adrien Seide (born November 18, 1956, Les Cayes, Haiti) is a self-taught Haitian painter internationally recognized for his structured landscape paintings that blend realism with poetic abstraction. After the death of his father, Seide relocated to Venezuela, where he continued developing his artistic practice while remaining deeply inspired by the geography and natural rhythms of Haiti. Seide’s work draws heavily from iconic Haitian landscapes, including the Artibonite River, the mountains of Jacmel, and the waterfalls of Saut Mathurine and Péligre. His paintings are defined by carefully constructed compositions that guide the viewer’s eye toward distant horizons through layered fields and rhythmic divisions. Although his scenes appear representational at first glance, closer observation reveals a fantastical dimension in which structure, repetition, and atmosphere take precedence over literal depiction. A defining feature of Seide’s style is the interaction between horizontal and vertical elements. As noted by Haitian art critic Gérald Alexis in Peintres Haïtiens, “horizontal lines evoking fields cross the vertical lines of trees to create a coherent landscape,” highlighting the architectural clarity and visual harmony of his work. This balance of order and imagination has made his paintings especially appealing to collectors. Jean-Adrien Seide has exhibited widely in Haiti and internationally, including in the United States, Venezuela, Spain, El Salvador, Canada, and France. His work is held in permanent museum collections such as the Musée de Vence in France and the Haitian Heritage Museum in Miami. Today, Seide is well known among international collectors for his serene yet intellectually engaging landscapes that offer a distinctive vision of Haitian nature.
