Meticulously deatiled drawings, a simple technique, and bright colors are three important charcateristics of Naive art, which for a long time was considered "primitive" or even retarded. Now Naive art is recognized for its refeshing vision of the world. The artists find their in everyday life, yet transcend the mundane through imagination and poetic insight. This book explores the different roots and traditions of Naive art. The multi-faceted world of the Naive painters is illustrated in a copious iconography, from the time of Rousseau, (1844-1910) in France and Piromanaschwili (1862-1918) in Russian Georgia to the Colombian artist Fernando Botero in our own time.
Natalia Brodskaia is a curator at the Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg. She has written monographs on artists including Rousseau, Renoir, and Derain. She is currently concentrating on the field of early twentieth-century French art.
