Participation in Art Basel 2026

Luboš Plný’s international recognition was firmly established in 2017, when he was selected for the 57th Venice Biennale. The first Art Brut artist to be acquired by the Musée National d’Art Moderne (MNAM) in 2013, he has since been the subject of exhibitions at the contemporary art museums of Kobe and Hiroshima, the Kunsthalle Dresden, and in his native Prague, where the Rudolfinum, notably, brought his work into dialogue with artists such as Louise Bourgeois and William Kentridge in 2022. In September 2023, we dedicated a solo exhibition to him across both our spaces, published a monograph, and presented a performance at the École des Beaux-Arts de Paris.

It was at the beginning of the 1960s that this humble Moravian woman began creating works, strikingly responding to impulses from the depths. At dawn, she would mentally gather flowers “that grow nowhere else,” making them emerge from the paper.
Anna Zemánková is an established figure of art brut, to the point that she was honored in 2013 at the Venice Biennale before a significant collection of her works joined the collections of the Centre Pompidou, the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, and the Mumok.
In 2023, the gallery presented her in a solo show at Art Basel Paris, and the following year Adriano Pedrosa, curator of the Venice Biennale, exhibited a group of her works. In 2026, the Hermès Corporate Foundation in Brussels subsequently presented eight of her drawings.

A former US Air Force technician, he was diagnosed with Asperger’s syndrome in his thirties. In his case, it manifests as an eidetic memory that allows him to bring a wealth of numerical data relating to his favourite subjects to the surface of his works. Time, magic squares, the Titanic and imaginary megacities are among the recurring themes of his drawings. His work is held in collections including those of the Smithsonian (Washington) and the Centre Pompidou (France), and has been exhibited at the Palais de Tokyo in the cult exhibition Le Bord des mondes, in An Alternative Guide to the Universe at the Hayward Gallery in London, and at Lafayette Anticipations in Paris.
He is also profiled in the documentary La Folie art brut, broadcast on Arte.

Adolf Wölfli is the emblematic figure of 20th century art brut, author of more than 1,500 drawings and of a 25,000-page biography. He has built a personal and complex universe, where he reinvents his past, and projects a utopian future, colonized to the edge of space. The richness and excess of this work can cause light-headeness and a loss of balance. The list of artists he fascinates is long (among them Jean Dubuffet, Annette Messager, Arnulf Rainer), and an echo to his presence in the collections of the Musée National d’Art Moderne (France), Prinzhorn collection (Germany), and the LaM (France). As André Breton pointed out, this is “one of the three or four major works of the 20th century.”

Bellucci attended the Blu Cammello workshop in Livorno, where he was brought to light by the artist Riccardo Bargellini. His hybrid sculptures, born from the assemblage of eclectic objects, form a mysterious language where destinies intertwine and echo one another, seen through the lens of transition, fetishism, or the apotropaic.
His works, part of the collections of the Musée National d’Art Moderne (Pompidou) and the Museum für Moderne Kunst in Frankfurt, have been showcased in numerous major exhibitions, notably at the Palais de Tokyo in Paris.
“These works are endowed with a symbolic power that many ‘professional’ artists are incapable of achieving. “(P. Dagen, Le Monde)
