The theatre is the central theme of this fourth volume in our
series titled 'Art Brut - The Collection', published to coincide
with the fourth Art Brut Biennale. After exploring architecture,
vehicles, and bodies, attention turns to the theatre, a theme that
is developed in its various aspects. The simplest example is the
depiction of theatrical architecture, as in the work of Eugen
Gabritschevsky or Victorien Sardou. Other artists create works that
are intimately connected to the world of theatre, however without
necessarily being a part of it. For example, for Giovanni Battista
Podesta or Vahan Poladian, a public stage is a place where they put
on a 'performance' that responds to a society that consigns them to
its margins. Their intrinsically ephemeral approach uses clothing
or accessories as a means of communication and to have their voices
or protestations heard. Other artists conceive whole cosmogonies
that take the form of a gigantic staging of a fanciful,
phantasmagoric world, as in the case of Aloise Corbaz, whose work
is to be viewed as a 'Theatre of the universe', or in that of
Marguerite Burnat-Provins, with her graphic work titled 'Ma Ville'.
The book includes over 100 illustrations, many of which are
published for the first time, carefully chosen to enable the reader
to explore the theme of the theatre in Outsider Art, or Art Brut.
