Summary:
Les sept auteurs réunis dans cet ouvrage ont conservé cette alliance originelle pour faire cohabiter les deux ordres du rationnel et du poétique. Leurs créations, récemment découvertes ou retrouvées à Bali, au Brésil, au Bénin, en Inde, dans le Grand Nord arctique, en Sicile et en Allemagne, montrent un Art Brut cosmopolite, métissé de poésie. Certains cultivent des liens sensibles avec la nature et te cosmos, se mettant à leur écoute attentive, à la manière d'un archer zen. Ces auteurs de divers pays et continents montrent une disponibilité particulière, une sorte d'état exploratoire où la raison se relâche, grâce à laquelle ils se dégagent de la réalité. Ainsi, des guirlandes de visages enchantent les nuits de Ni Tanjung, des peintures tatouent les murs de la ville grâce à Giovanni Bosco, des machines à voler ou à coudre peuplent l'univers de Gustav Mesmer ainsi que celui d'Ezekiel Messou. Ailleurs, divinités et esprits surgissent de l'ombre sous les doigts de Kashinath Chawan et d'Anarqâq. Cet ouvrage contient un DVD avec six films documentaires qui permettent de découvrir les artistes sur leur lieu de vie et de création.
