Oliver Benoit’s work’s emotional, intellectual, and aesthetic power is not without his sociological insight. Benoit’s paintings are found in private collections in many countries, including England and Scotland in the United Kingdom, Germany, Canada, Japan, and Israel, as well as on public display at Grenada Embassy in Washington, DC.
