About the author
Jean Dubuffet (1901-1985)
Jean Dubuffet developed a singular body of work in the wake of Dada, based on the rejection of cultural values that he saw as an obstacle to pure artistic creation. In 1945, he coined the concept of Art Brut, which brings together artistic expressions free of all cultural influences. His entire approach is part of the same quest for a creative experience that goes against the grain of prevailing practices.
