Outsider' Paris 2024: the outsider art fair at Espace Le Molière for a new edition

It's back for a second edition: the Outsider' Paris raw art fair takes place at the Espace Le Molière, in the 1st arrondissement, from October 14 to 20, 2024. This artistic rendezvous brings together several art galleries and original artists, to celebrate art brut.

But what exactly isart brut? This movement was identified in 1945 by Jean Dubuffet: he gave this name to creations made by the marginalized and the insane, i.e. hospitalized, imprisoned, anarchist, mystical or rebellious people. For Dubuffet, art brut is created by people who have received no artistic education or culture, and who create free from these traditional and intellectual influences and shackles.

Art brut fascinates artists and collectors alike, and has undergone several evolutions over the decades. Always on the bangs of more traditional currents, art brut is now proudly on show at Le Molière, for the latest edition of the Outsider' Paris fair.
