Désastre (12 janvier 2010) is an artwork of Haitian artist Frankétienne. This acrylic on canvas was painted between 15 and 16 January 2010,[1] the same week the 2010 earthquake hit Port-au-Prince, Haiti's capital city. The artwork represents the victims below the city's wreckage.
It was shown to the public for the last time during the exposition "Pour la memoire et la lumière" ("For memory and light") promoted by the foundation Ayiti Bel[2] at the Hotel NH Haiti El Rancho,[3][4] in Pétionville, Haití, between 11–25 April 2014.
