Photo | Brut presents more than five hundred works from the exceptional collection of Bruno Decharme, as well as a selection from institutional and private collections chosen for their complementarity. The works of the fifty-three featured artists reveal the connection between art brut and photography. Some of the artists are known ; others are veritable discoveries. These creators stand out for the particular inventiveness of their productions, which defy the categories and boundaries traditionally used in art history. The international exhibition, the first on the subject, and this companion publication examine a relatively unexplored segment of the research on art brut. They shine light on the innovative practices in the field of photography, offering fresh insight into the medium.
