From the 1950s onwards, there was a real craze among psychiatrists around the world for what was then called "psychopathological art". Much research was then carried out on the artistic productions of the mentally ill. By recalling the exhibition that took place at Sainte-Anne Hospital in 1950, this book, which reproduces numerous French and foreign works, puts into perspective the history of the Sainte-Anne Collection and that of psychiatry between the 1950s and 1970s.
