Approaching the Art of Three Art Brut Artists

"There is no such thing as art of the mentally ill, just as there is no such thing as art of people with knee problems." said Jean Dubuffet, the founder of Art Brut. We will take a look at the completely different works of three Art Brut artists, all three hospitalized for schizophrenia: Aloïse Corbaz, Adolf Wölfli, and Eugen Gabritchevsky. By delving into their lives, and the reports of their doctors and relatives, as well as their own writings, we gain a better understanding of the worlds each of them created in their art.
