Arte Naif (Spanish Edition)

Naïve art became recognized as such at the end of the 19th century. Created by artists who often lacked formal education, and characterized by a simplicity and spontaneity far removed from formal, institutionally approved styles, naïve art is more popular today than ever. This oversize book honors a wide range of important artists of this distinctive form from many countries and time periods, including Henri Rosseau, Séraphine de Senlis, André Bauchant, Camille Bombois, Joan Miró, Guido Vedovato, Niko Pirosmani, and Ivan Generalic.
