Free 3D Printable of the Week: Le Bel costumé by Jean Dubuffet

The 4-meter-high Le Bel costumé stands in the Jardin des Tuileries, between the Louvre Museum and the Place de la Concorde in Paris.  It can also stand in your own home, ordered as a 3D print through 3D Hubs or downloaded for 3D printing at home.  Though Jean Dubuffet, famous for founding the Art Brut movement that allowed “outsiders” to enter the art world, did not create this sculpture himself, it was made in 1998 out of epoxy resin and polyurethane paint from a model made by the artist in 1973.  It has been digitally reproduced by outsider artist, Sketchfab user, and Sketchfab Community Support employee, James using 47 photos in Photoscan.
