Everything begins when psychiatrists begin to take an interest about work made by their patients inside institutions because they want to understand it for finding the good treatment but they didn't understand first that it was art. Some of these works stay now in museums all over the world includind the famous of Lausanne. Raw art is also the one of unclassifiable people far from intellectual world without following art studies and leaded by spontaneous way of doing as Jean Dubuffet said in 1963. Art galleries exhibit raw art but only specialized like Drouin in Paris or Chave in Vence because at the beginning the art critics don't like it and people reject it. In spite of that Raw art becomes to be important because it receives the support of famous people like Jean Paulhan, Jean - Paul Sartre, André Malraux, Henri Michaux and Jean Dubuffet. The Chave gallery open his doors in 1947 and the owner Alphonse Chave decides under the advises of Jean Dubuffet to organize and exhibition puting together all the raw artists they can find around them ten years after the potent Drouin exhibition in Paris (1949). The visitor can watch now drawings or sculptures showing intense feelings towards lines or colors highlighting the will to say someting deep.
