Guided tour of the exhibition “Masterpieces. At the Heart of the Sainte-Anne Collection” (french)
Discover the emblematic works of the Museum of Art and History of Sainte-Anne Hospital on a guided tour, exploring cross-cutting themes such as the history of asylum, dreams of landscapes, and imaginary worlds, bringing together art, psychiatry, and contemporary creation.
Let us guide you through the exhibition “Masterpieces: At the Heart of the Sainte-Anne Collection,” which highlights emblematic works by patient-artists.
The exhibition is structured into six thematic sections:
- Asylum and refuge stories
- Dreams of landscapes and adventure
- Imaginary worlds
- Raw and beautiful
- The intimate and the living
- Symbolism
It offers an opportunity to discover works by now widely recognized artists such as Aloïse Corbaz, Unica Zürn, Guillaume Pujolle, Maurice Blin, and Caroline Macdonald, as well as works by anonymous artists from Poland, India, and Japan.
The exhibition aims in particular to contribute to the destigmatization of artistic production by patient-artists, showing that it fully belongs within the history of art and creation.
