Sue Perry - Paintings

Mid-20th c., Jean DuBuffet declared that only artists uncompromised by the dominant culture were free of its nefarious influence.  “Art brut” or “raw art” by painters expressing themselves without formal training was “authentic.”  Later in the 1970s, “outsider art,” work produced without the blessing of “high culture,” was thought to be part of a “modern” movement challenging traditional values.
