André ROBILLARD

(France, 1931-)

André Robillard is at times referred to as “the man with guns!” For thirty years, this creator who does not consider himself an artist, makes symbolic guns using tin cans, used light bulbs, old cogwheels, recovered pieces of wood, fabrics, nails, wire and scotch tape. A multi-disciplinary artist he is also a musician: percussion improvisations on rubbish bins using empty cartridges placed at the end of the fingers, accordion and harmonica accompanied by very personal songs.

Present in the largest outsider art collections, this anti-conformist and anti-militarist artist beckons the viewers in a playful manner in spite of himself.
