Joseph Louisjuste (1940-1989), born in Croix des Bouquets, Haiti, emerged as a vital figure in the realm of iron sculpture during the mid-20th century. As the youngest of the talented Louisjuste brothers, Joseph started honing his skills in the 1960s under the guidance of master metal artist, Georges Liautaud. In 1968, Joseph and his siblings joined the Art Center, contributing significantly to the propagation of the cut iron technique, a novel approach that marked their collective work. Through their teachings, they mentored a new generation of artists, including notable figures such as Gabriel Bien-Aimé and Serge Jolimeau. In recognition of his extraordinary talent, Louisjuste's work was featured in exhibitions across the globe, from the Frost Museum to the Grand Palais. His legacy continues posthumously as his pieces remain integral components of numerous prestigious collections. These include the Huntington Museum of Art, the Loew Museum, the Waterloo Museum, the Milwaukee Art Museum, and the Art Center. His influential career and profound impact on the art world stand testament to his life's work, long after his demise in 1989.
