Ludovic Booz was born in Aquin June 16, 1940. He first went to the Centre d’Art where he worked with the artist Antonio Joseph. At the end of the 50s, he attended the École de Beaux Arts, recently founded. He studied and worked under the supervision of professor Montaguteli. He was later influenced by l’École de la Beauté, but obsessed by the harsh reality of his environment, he quickly broke away from it while keeping its fondness for beautiful shapes and elongations
Ludovic Booz is best known as a sculptor. The painter, however, was able to develop a very personal style and as such, is very interesting. His depictions are usually tragic when, reinforced by the use of warm tones drowned under the grayness, it doesn’t fall into complete despair. His work has been exhibited in the USA, France, Canada and the Caribbean.
In 2012, Ludovic Booz answered the Call for Haitian Art launched by the Toussaint Louveture Cultural Foundation and donated his painting “Les naufragés.” It became part of the "Save A Museum" art collection to raise funds for the repair of the Musee d'Art Haitien du College St Pierre severely damaged during the 2010 earthquake.
