Collection de l'Art Brut (Lausanne)

The Collection de l'Art Brut in Lausanne is a museum dedicated to showcasing "raw" or outsider art—works created outside official art circles by self-taught artists, often without formal training. It focuses on art made by individuals facing mental health challenges, or those working in isolation, offering a unique glimpse into their authentic, unfiltered creativity. Founded by artist Jean Dubuffet in 1976, the collection highlights raw emotional expression and originality, emphasizing the importance of art created from genuine personal experience rather than commercial or academic standards. It’s an inspiring space celebrating individual vision beyond traditional art norms.
