Descripción Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Throughout the history of European modernism, philosophers and artists have been fascinated by madness. Something different happened in Brazil, however, with the art of the insane that flourished within the modernist movements there. From the 1920s to the 1960s, the direction and creation of art by the mentally ill was actively encouraged by prominent figures in both medicine and art criticism, which led to a much wider appreciation among the curators of major institutions of modern art in Brazil, where pieces are included in important exhibitions and collections. Kaira M. Cabanas shows that at the center of this advocacy stood such significant proponents as psychiatrists Osorio Cesar and Nise da Silveira, who championed treatments that included painting and drawing studios; and the art critic Mario Pedrosa, who penned Gestaltist theses on aesthetic response. Cabanas examines the lasting influence of this unique era of Brazilian modernism, and how the afterlife of this outsider art continues to raise important questions. How do we respect the experiences of the mad as their work is viewed through the lens of global art? Why is this art reappearing now that definitions of global contemporary art are being contested?Learning from Madness offers an invigorating series of case studies that track the parallels between psychiatric patients work in Western Europe and its reception by influential artists there, to an analogous but altogether distinct situation in Brazil.
