Słowo i obraz w sztuce outsiderów
Word and Image in the Art of Outsiders

Summary/Abstract: An attempted analysis of relations between the word and the image in the domain of outsider art or art brut. The author considered the manner in which elements of writings were applied in artistic compositions by selected authors (Władysław Grygny, Zdeněk Košek, Iwona Mysera), while at the same time drawing attention to assorted processes and transformations to which this medium succumbs in the described works and trying to indicate within this context features specific for this particular sphere of artistic activity. The methodological foundation of the study is composed of such conceptions as: the intentional and the non-intentional (Jan Mukařovský), the semiotic (Julia Kristeva), visuality (Georges Didi-Huberman), shapelessness, and ornament.
