Paris has long been a centre for Henry Darger activity, not least in 2021 with the publication of Xavier Mauméjean’s insightful biography ‘Henry Darger: Dans Les Royaumes de L’Irréel’, and Philippe Cohen Solal’s outstanding ‘Outsider’ album, podcast series and events at the Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris.

There’s more Darger-inspired activity this month, at Paris Fashion Week – the Vivian Girls relocated to France for Kidill’s Autumn/ Winter 22-23 Collection by Japanese designer Hiroaki Sueyasu.
