Jean Dubuffet. Puppets of the City
Dubuffet Foundation, Paris, France
13 September 2022 - 06 January 2023

As an echo to the exhibition “Ler dla canpane” shown at the reopening of the Foundation in Paris in 2019, it is time for the “Puppets of the City” (as opposed to the “Puppets of the countryside”) to inhabit Jean Dubuffet’s works. The city, a theme dear to Jean Dubuffet, runs through all his drawings, paintings, sculptures, and engravings from the 1940s until the end of his life. As opposed to the quiet countryside, the city and its agitation offer an endless and discontinuous show where the protagonists, manipulated like puppets, come to populate a new “Cité Fantoche”.

The exhibition will be on view at Dubuffet Foundation (Paris, France) from September 13, 2022, to January 6, 2023.
