Depuis trente ans, nous sommes spécialisés dans l’art singulier ou Outsider-Art, ce mouvement artistique contemporain qui regroupe un certain nombre de créateurs autodidactes ayant volontairement ou non établi une distance avec l’art officiel. Initié par Jean Dubuffet, les artistes singuliers revendiquent une spontanéité face à l’intellectualisme des artistes établis.
