The international triennial event INSITA is a selective exhibition presenting the genuine values of self-taught art – Naïve Art, Art Brut and Outsider Art.
The structure of the INSITA 2010 exhibition:
1. Solo exhibition of Justyna Matysiak (1979), the Laureate of the Grand Prix INSITA 2007 from Poland, featuring detailed depictions of figures and architecture; the artist’s drawings are characterized by pure composition with refined linear structures and reduced colour tones.
2. The competitive international exhibition of the works of contemporary artists included in the categories Naïve Art, Art Brut and Outsider Art, from which the International Jury will choose the laureate of the Grand Prix INSITA 2010. The exhibition presents specific vocabulary and morphological features of original spontaneous creation ranging from expressive dynamic structures to primary forms of expression.
3. The Mini Gallery presents small collections of works by Ivan Rabuzin (1921 – 2008), the most significant Croatian naïve artist who created harmonious, poetical paintings of flowers and landscapes; Robert Burda (1942), the German protagonist of Art Brut, showing his minimalistic drawings of interiors, and Kashinath Chauhan (1966) from India, the author of spontaneous elementary figures. The Mini Gallery is complemented with the work of an unknown German artist and his interpretations of fantastical stories and fairy tales, painted in flowing handwriting with gentle modelling of volumes.
4. The collection of Fabric Art represents twenty artists of European and world renown (Helga Sophia Goetze, Danielle Jacqui, György Kricsfalussy, Raymond Materson, Michel Nedjar, Anna Zemánková and other artists) and their works created from threads and fibres. The exhibition shows various forms of interpretation of the textile medium from the classical picture to object and installation. The artists’ works display a wide range of motifs. While some artists chose to depict the objective world, others draw on the creative power of their inner vision and imagination.
