This article explores La Salon Tout Inclus, an exhibition conceived by Marianne Chapel that challenged traditional gatekeeping in the art world by bringing together artists of all backgrounds and experience levels.
Summary: Inspired by the history of the Paris Salon and its exclusions, La Salon Tout Inclus featured more than 50 local and regional artists in a single exhibition celebrating accessibility, diversity, and community. Through the project, Chapel and SPAACES encouraged dialogue about inclusivity in the arts while demonstrating that creative expression can thrive when barriers to participation are removed.
