Fritz Rock (Haitian, b.1944)

Fritz Rock is a Haitian painter and student of Casimir Laurent, known for vibrant geometric compositions inspired by daily life in Haiti. Influenced by the Centre d’Art tradition, his work blends cubist structure with bold color, depicting market scenes filled with rhythm, movement, and community. Rock’s paintings are distinguished by luminous palettes of yellow, orange, and purple, reflecting both spiritual energy and the visual language of Haitian modernism. In 1986, he relocated to Florida, where he continued to paint and share Haitian culture with a wider international audience. Today, Fritz Rock’s paintings are appreciated by collectors for their dynamic composition, cultural resonance, and balance between abstraction and figuration.
