Bibliography, index. Description: This copy is Signed by the author, with a personalized inscription. Profusely illustrated in black and white and color. From the jacket blurb: ''The art of visionaries, folk creators, spiritualists, recluses, the mad and the socially marginalized is no longer scorned and cannot be ignored. Among the first to value and collect such work as the French artist Jean Dubuffet. For those he judged to represent the purest form of creation he coined the term Art Brut, literally 'raw art' -- raw because it was uncooked by culture, raw because it came directly from the psyche, art touched by a raw nerve. John Maizels traces the history of the recognition and study of this art and examines the different theories and definitions that have grown up around it. He provides detailed expositions of the work of individual artists ranging from Art Brut masters such as Adolf Wolfi and Aloise Corbaz to such gifted American folk artists as Bill Traylor ad Mose Tolliver.''
