Art Brut in America: The Incursion of Jean Dubuffet traces the influence of Art Brut in the US through works from Dubuffets art brut collection. The exhibition and its accompanying catalogue are organized around two seminal art-historical moments: the display of Dubuffets collection at the home of artist and collector Alfonso Ossorio in the 1950s and Dubuffets provocative speech Anticultural Positions delivered at the Arts Club of Chicago in 1951. Including both little-known and canonical works--such as drawings annotated manuscripts letters paintings embroideries and sculptures--created by 38 artists including Alose Corbaz Heinrich Anton Mller Francis Palanc Jeanne Tripier and Adolf Wlfli as well as artworks by anonymous artists and children this volume points to the influence of Art Brut on the burgeoning American style of Abstract Expressionism as well as on individual artists and collectors.
