About the Item

Jean Dubuffet's 1950 exhibition poster for "La Métromanie ou les dessous de la capitale" at Galerie Nina Dausset is a remarkable work of art that testifies to the French artist's talent and singular vision. In 1950, the Galerie Nina Dausset in Paris hosted an exhibition entitled "La Métromanie ou les dessous de la capitale". This exhibition was an opportunity for Jean Dubuffet to present his innovative works to the public, evoking an atypical and subversive vision of urban life and the metropolis. The poster designed by Dubuffet for this event reflects his distinctive artistic style and his willingness to break with traditional art conventions. Using bright colors and simplified forms, Dubuffet proposed a bold, abstract depiction of the "underside of the capital". His works, which often addressed social and psychological themes, were designed to provoke thought and question established norms. This exhibition poster is also a demonstration of Galerie Nina Dausset's commitment to contemporary artists and their ability to push the boundaries of conventional art. Today, Jean Dubuffet's poster for "La Métromanie ou les dessous de la capitale" has become a prized collector's item for modern and contemporary art lovers. It testifies to Dubuffet's importance as a major artist of the Art Brut movement and his lasting influence on twentieth-century art. The poster continues to inspire and fascinate, recalling the boldness and creativity that marked Jean Dubuffet's career, and the essential role of art galleries in promoting new forms of artistic expression.
