La Commissure presents an exhibition by Joao Montreal at Le Petit
Mignon
(May18th-June20th)

About Joao Montreal:

English:
Joao Montreal is born in Angola in 1820. He is initiated into Bantou
sorcery’s rites and gets rich on diamand business. His art, so far
unrecognized, was recently rediscovered thanks to the perseverance of a
Japanese reader: Jaaku Agemono. His drawings, exhumed from the
oblivion,
have preserved the pureness and modernity of a visionary artist.

German:
Joao Montreal ist 1820 in Angola geboren. Er wird in Riten der
Bantou-Zauberei eingeweiht und bereichert sich am Diamantgeschäft.
Seine bisher verkannte Kunst ist neulich dank der Beharrlichkeit eines
japanischen Universitätslehrers wiederentdeckt worden: Jaaku Agemono.
Die ausgegrabenen Zeichnungen der Vergessenheit haben die Reinheit und
Modernität eines visionären Künstlers behalten.
