Bedouin on a donkey 1948

"Bedouin on a Donkey," created by Jean Dubuffet in 1948, is a striking example of Art Brut, a movement celebrating the artistic expression of untrained artists. Dubuffet, known for his exploration of "raw art," depicts a figure riding a donkey in a distorted, childlike style. The artwork's vibrant colors and rough brushstrokes create a sense of energy and immediacy, capturing the essence of unfiltered creative expression. The use of thick paint and bold outlines reflects Dubuffet's fascination with the intuitive and instinctive nature of art.
