International symposium: Disability art studios: new sources for Art Brut?

Full program on blog page

The Collection de l’Art Brut will hold an international symposium to coincide with the solo exhibitions of works by Pascal Vonlanthen and Clemens Wild, which run from 14 June to 27 October 2024.

The event will feature art brut specialists, studio directors and the artists they support, and cultural and social policymakers from the City of Lausanne and the Canton of Vaud. The one-day symposium will provide insights into the workings of organisations in Belgium, France and Switzerland that support artists with disabilities and showcase their work. In recent years, these studios have also provided a rich seam of new artist discoveries for museums and galleries with an interest in art brut.

The symposium will look back on the history of disability art studios, most of which started life in psychiatric hospitals – places outside conventional art circles – and explore their early links with art brut. This will also be an opportunity to challenge the criteria by which art brut is categorised in light of the fact that these creative spaces are “supervised”, to compare the various models by which these studios operate, and to examine the support they offer to the artists they accommodate and represent.

What place for art in the public space

June 21 2024 From 09.30 am to 05.00 pm

Whether they are spontaneous, irreverently premeditated or meticulously orchestrated by the authorities, works of art in the public space, by the difficulties or ease with which they find their place, reflect the value attributed to them.

While the notion of well-being in the city is studied through the prism of air quality or noise pollution, what added value does the appearance of a work of art bring to people's daily lives? Is the public hostage to a political choice, or witness to totally free expression? Examples of Art Brut environments created underground and the rebellious culture of street art give us an insight into the diversity of responses to this question: what place for art in the public space?
