© Regula Tschumi

Jean Dubuffet has never ceased to question the field of art and its boundaries, participating in his time in a radical critique of the definition of the discipline. What about this field today?
Ataa Oko (1919-2012) was a pioneer of the Ghanaian coffin art. It was only at the age of 84 that he began drawing following his meeting with the ethnologist Regula Tschumi. The latter presents his collaborative work with the artist while going back over the process that led to considering his works, now exhibited in various European museums, as art brut.
