Michel NEDJAR

Michel Nedjar was born in 1947 in Soisy-sous-Montmorency, France. At the end of the 1960s, Nedjar embarked on several journeys that led him to Mexico and Guatemala his fascination for dolls, which he discovered on local markets. After his return in 1976, Nedjar’s first “Poupées” emerged: fetish figures made of twigs, sackcloth, and other waste materials. In 1980, he began to draw and produce finger paintings. In addition to the Collection de l’Art Brut, Switzerland, his works can also be found in the Centre Pompidou, France. Michel Nedjar lives and works in Paris.
