Roundtable Discussion: Outsider Art (Art Brut): Symbolism of Body Adornments

Thursday, February 18, 2021 @ 1:00 pm2:00 pm

Free

Self-taught Outsider artists (“Art Brut”)  develop personal systems of expression to produce paintings, sculptures, drawings or textile works outside of official artistic circles. Sometimes unaware of social conventions, often resistant to cultural rules, they transgress (sometimes involuntarily) established codes and invent highly personal symbolic universes. In their works, Outsider artists invent subjects, modes of representation, systems of perspective, and technical means, often resorting to used, humble, or discarded materials.
