Discussion Post: What Is Art Brut?
In order to help you to focus on some ideas that might be emerging for you so far, respond to the following questions. The word count requirement for this assignment is 300 words, we do expect thoughtful answers to each question.
A. List and explain 3 more things that you learned about Art Brut.
B. Think about the two videos that you viewed. How are they similar? How are they different?
C. With reference to Dubuffet and Primitivism, what is your opinion about the fact that he and other artists chose to emulate children's art, social outsiders, and non-western art in their own work?
D. Describe Dubuffet's work of art A View of Paris: The Life of Pleasure in as much detail as you can. Take some time to really look at the image first and then tell us what you see (details, colors, shapes, textures, figures and how they are organized, environment, etc.). Once you have completed your description, write a paragraph that tells us a story about what is happening in the painting.
E. Given what you have learned about Art Brut and Outsider art, what do you think is different about the two genres? Are there any similarities?
