Question

In 2020, the Brooklyn Museum controversially deaccessioned The Messenger, a painting from this artist’s Circus series that shows a man made up of pinkish blobs. A painting by this artist that shows oddly skin-toned people wearing cowboy hats in front of building façades is part of a broader series that celebrates urban street festivals. After his “Texturologies” and “Materiologies” cycles, this artist began a series of abstract paintings (-5[1])based on the modular oval-based structures he doodled while on the phone. A book by Hans Prinzhorn partly inspired this artist’s (10[1])trademark early style of flattened perspective and heavily textured paint layers, (-5[1])as seen in his Cow with the Subtle Nose. (10[1])This artist (10[1])was inspired by the art of the mentally ill (10[1])to found a movement named for its “rough” aesthetic. For (10[1])10 points, (10[1])name this French artist (-5[1])who created the L’Hourloupe (“loor-LOOP”) series and (10[1])spearheaded the art brut movement. (10[2])■END■ (0[12])
