Art Brut--the "wild art" of Swiss Outsider artist, Eloise Corbaz (1886 - 1964) reminds me of 1960's art. Eloise worked as a governess at the court of Kaiser Wilhelm II before her long internment for schizophrenia. She expressed all her passions in her art and was eventually cured  of her illness. Her work was  discovered and brought to the world by artist, Jean Dubuffet.
