This is the space we occupy… Any young artist can apply to Montrouge. No media is rejected out of hand; there is no set theme acting as a stumbling block. The only thing that counts is showcasing unique personalities and their world. The Salon de Montrouge is renowned for its boldness and independence. It is precisely because we maintain his principle of openness to discovery that the Salon remains a unique territory , attracting a large public of art lovers and professionals.”
