List of Haitian artists
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This page provides a list of Haitian artists. People on this list were either born in Haiti or possess Haitian citizenship. Due to Haitian nationality laws, dual citizenship is now permitted by the Constitution of Haiti, therefore people of Haitian ancestry born outside of the country are not included in this list, unless they have renounced their foreign citizenship or have resided extensively in Haiti and made significant contributions to Haitian government or society. The list includes both native born and naturalized Haitians, as well as permanent foreign residents who have been recognized internationally for artistic reasons. If not indicated here, their birth in Haiti and notability are mentioned in their main article.
