Augustin Lesage est un peintre médiumnique français (1876-1954). Issu d’une famille de mineurs, il travaille dans les mines après avoir obtenu son certificat d’études en 1890. Sa vie prend un tournant inattendu en 1911 lorsqu’il entend des voix lui dire qu’un jour il deviendra peintre. Sous la dictée des esprits, il commence à créer des œuvres caractérisées par des compositions géométriques et symétriques. Admiré par des personnalités telles qu’André Breton, Jean Dubuffet il devient une figure majeure de l’art brut. 

This annoted catalog dedicated to the artist Augustin Lesage, prefaced by the art historian Michel Thévoz, is intended as a new reference tool for both the actors of the art market and the amateur or seasoned collector.

The author, Pierre Guénégan, has been working for many years on the work of Augustin Lesage. He is regularly consulted for his expertise during auctions to issue certificates of authenticity.
