MOBA - Salon du Bad Art

The Museum Of Bad Art brings together the best of art that is just “too bad to be ignored”. Painted by anonymous amateur artists, these works have been rescued from garbage bins and found in thrift stores. The museum’s curators offer comical interpretations of the paintings, derisively highlighting their endearing badness. Like no other in the world, the MOBA collection invites us to reconsider our assumptions about art and beauty.

At EXMURO’s Aire publique, paintings of varying degrees of failure line the walls of a Louis XVI style drawing room. The exhibition scenography is inspired by the Salon de peinture et de sculpture, an annual group show presented by the Académie des beaux-arts in Paris in the 18th and 19th centuries. At the time, this elitist event would have excluded the singular creations celebrated today in the Bad Art Salon. Make yourself comfortable with a cup of coffee and soak up the unusual atmosphere!
