First documentary on Art Brut
Eternity Has No Door of Escape by Arthur Borgnis
This documentary retraces the tumultuous history of art brut and introduces us to some of its pivotal figures (Jean Dubuffet, André Breton, Hans Prinzhorn, Harald Szeeman…) based on analyses, interviews, and a treasure trove of rare archival footage, often previously unreleased. It allows us to encounter leading experts in the field, and the key places and institutions where its history unfolded and continues to unfold, in France, Switzerland, Germany, and Belgium.
