Anic Zanzi
Anic Zanzi has been a curator at the Collection de l’Art Brut since 2003. An art historian with a degree in Public Relations, she is in charge of editing the various works published by the institution and organises exhibitions, such as People (2016), Henriette Zéphir (2017), Ernst Kolb (2018), Carlo Zinelli, recto verso (2019) and Michel Nedjar (2023), as well as two Art Brut biennials, Véhicules (2013) and Croyances (2022).
Flavie Beuvin is a visual artist with a degree in Art and Aesthetics. Her art and theoretical work focus on the echoes between the creating body and the body of the work. The concept of “vegetality”, which she developed as part of her academic research and published by Presses Universitaires du Septentrion as Végétalité, Art Brut et féminins, lies at the heart of her aesthetics. She is also extremely keen on drawing, combining it with various other media, such as embroidery and collage.
Vânia Freitas holds a BA in Conservation-Restoration from the Haute École Arc in Neuchâtel. She is currently pursuing a master’s degree in Museum Studies at the University of Neuchâtel. She has gained experience in preventive conservation through periods spent in various other institutions, notably the Cinémathèque suisse research centre and Maison d’Ailleurs. Vânia also spent time at the Collection de l’Art Brut from 2023 to 2024, working mainly on Laure Pigeon’s oeuvre.
