Take your pick: adrenaline packed or slow and contemplative?
Jan 1, 2025 ~ Dec 31, 2026
The collection of the Musée international d'art naïf de Magog comprises 1300 pieces by more than 334 artists from 42 countries. MIANM is the only museum in Canada entirely devoted to naive art.
Pieces from Québec naive artists constitute some 35% of the collection. Most of these pieces are oil or acrylic paintings on canvas but we also find other medium and supports. Many of these paintings describe scenes from Quebec traditional past or from current daily life. Nature often takes a predominant place. We find in these paintings multifaceted artistic creativity where naive artists explore their universe with a critical or even an ironical eye. The Museum also owns some pieces from Canadian artists.
The largest part of the Museum collection comes from artists from abroad. In addition to Canada, 33 other countries are represented in our collection. Most naive art paintings by foreign artists in our collection are from Haïti, France and Romania. Mexico and Russia are also present in our global collection, with a religious or folk art coloration.
