Abstracts

EN
Art Brut basically opposes all accepted categories as well as all normative descriptions. It is possible to define what it is not, but it is extremely difficult to say what it is and even harder – what it will be like in the future. Its essential feature is not to fit into accepted categories. Dubuffet was of the opinion that Art Brut is simply art, primary art, “genuine” art… Art Brut as an act of resistance? Resistance towards that which splits, divides, disintegrates and fragmentises the subject. An attempt made each morning to establish contact with the world and oneself, to mentally and physically get prepared, to survive through another day, to build a fragile integrity, constantly threatened by the turbulent inner world, in which it lives, but also by the chaos of the outer world, which it attacks and de-concentrates.
