Collections of Art Brut

Collections of Art Brut refer to curated groups of artworks created outside traditional artistic standards, often by self-taught or marginalized individuals. These works emphasize raw, authentic expression and emotional intensity, rather than technical polish or mainstream appeal. Art Brut collections highlight the unique perspectives of artists who often operate outside the commercial art world, such as those in mental health institutions or underground environments. These collections provide insight into raw human creativity and unconventional ways of seeing the world, challenging traditional notions of art and beauty.
