Art Brut Paintings for Sale
The term 'Outsider Art' was coined in 1972 by art critic Roger Cardinal as an English equivalent for the French 'Art Brut', which can also be translated as 'raw' art. It refers to art made by self-taught or 'naïve' artists, who fall outside of the mainstream and have had little to no contact with the traditional art work. Often, Outsider Art is used to label artists with mental ill health, with unconventional ideas, or even children, and frequently these artists are discovered only after their deaths. The label refers purely to the nature of the artists, the art works themselves can be extraordinarily varied in genre and appearance.
Despite the historical marginalisation of Outsider Artists, Outsider Art is now a successful genre with an Outsider Art Fair taking place in New York every year since 1993 and regularly published journals dedicated to the subject. Discover Artsper's collection of works by Outsider Artists, including pieces by Jean Dubuffet himself, widely recognised as creator of the Art Brut movement.

Who invented Art Brut?
Jean Dubuffet, a French artist born in 1901, is credited with the invention of the art movement Art Brut.
What is the principle of Art Brut?
Art Brut, also known as "outsider art", is made by self-taught artists that have had little to no contact with traditional art institutions. The work of these artists often depicts extreme mental states, fantasy worlds or unusual ideas.
Why is it called Art Brut?
The word brut means "raw" in French, which reflects the principle of the movement that its artists are untrained and do not have ties to the traditional art world.
