About this listen
These sources present Quebec popular art through the dissemination and preservation work conducted by the specialist Adrien Levasseur. We discover the evolution of the "gosseux", these once marginal self-taught sculptors now recognized as true popular artists integrated into cultural heritage. The texts highlight the Maison des créateurs d'art populaire located in Plaisance, an exhibition venue dedicated to the influence of the talents of yesterday and today. The author also details his career as a passionate collector and his exhaustive bibliography of six books documenting this unique form of expression. Finally, numerous reports of exhibitions and events testify to the vitality of this artistic community throughout the regions of Quebec.
