Art Brut
by Johnny K Alexander
Art Brut designates "works executed by persons unharmed by artistic culture, in which mimesis, in contrast to what happens in the case of intellectuals, has little or no part at all. Consequently, the authors draw their inspiration (themes, materials, the means of transposition, rythtm, different styles of writing, etc.) from their resources and not from the clichés of classical or fashionable art." - Jean Dubuffet
