Extraordinary! presents the results of an exceptional research project undertaken at the Zurich University of the Arts that documented and examined art produced in asylums and mental hospitals throughout Switzerland around 1900. Varied in style and media, the works often mark long periods of dedicated and passionate work and reveal remarkable technical and artistic prowess. They serve, the editors show, as both an expression of their creators' ideas and an act of compensation for, and their own ciriticism of, the dull and often hard life at the institutions they treaded.
Featuring a diverse selection of previously unpublished works, Extraordinary! questions our contemporary understanding of art, encouraging the reader to engage with these artists and their work and thereby revisit the very idea of what constitutes art.
The book is published to coincide with exhibitions at Prinzhorn Collection, Heidelberg (Germany, autumn 2018), Kunstmuseum Thun (Switzerland, spring 2019), and LENTOS Kunstmuseum Linz (Austria, summer 2019).
