The Misunderstood Art of Antonio Ligabue (2023x9)

Ausstrahlung: Mai 03, 2023

The artist I’m referring to for today’s video is Swiss outsider artist Antonio Ligabue. Living most of his adult life as a wanderer, in and out of many hospitals and mental institutions, historians and art critics would find the strange life and mental instability of Antonio irresistibly fascinating and unfortunately from what I found in my research, this has tainted the meaning and reception of his art over the years. But hopefully in today’s video, we can look at Atonio Ligabue’s art in a different way, in the way it was intended. To see not only his art, but the wider world around us, through the exact same eyes of this fascinating individual.
