Description
Paris,La Mairie,1984-1990
Softcover, 26 x 19 cm, ca. 50 pages per volume, illustrated throughout in color and black and white. Text in French.
A set of catalogs for the Salon International d’Art Naïf, the first, second, fourth and fifth edition. Sadly lacking the catalogue for the third edition. All similar in concept, with almost a hundred artists represented at each salon. At first glance uncommon in institutional libraries, with a few single catalogs here and there.
