Sign In to see what this sold for

Fabric, sequins and other material. Haitian. 22" x 11" x 16"h. Provenance: Jonathan Demme Collection. Est. $100 - $200. Ship: $35 Pierrot Barra was a visionary constructor of Voodou Icons. He died in 1999 at the age of 57. Tragically, many of his sculptures were destroyed when religious fanatics looted the Museum of Port-au-Prince and fed them to a bonfire on the day after Jean-Bertrand Aristide fled Haiti in 2004.
