| book description |

Slavko KopaÄ. Hidden Treasure. Informal Art, Surrealism, Art Brut accompanies the exhibition Slavko KopaÄ. Hidden Treasure (Accademia delle Arti del Disegno, Florence, 12th September â€“ 13th November 2025). With an introduction by Bernard BlistÃ¨ne, honorary director of the Centre Pompidou and advocate of the acquisition of twelve of KopaÄâ€™s works into the museumâ€™s collection, the book explores a multifaceted artist, deeply connected to Surrealism, Informal Art, and Art Brut. A key collaborator of Jean Dubuffet and the first curator of the â€œCollection de lâ€™Art Brutâ€, he played a fundamental part in its promotion and configuration. His magical, totemic universe captivated the Surrealists and led to a collaboration with AndrÃ© Breton. At the same time, critic Michel TapiÃ© included him in Un Art Autre (1952), recognising his originality within the Informal Art movement. He used painting, drawing, ceramics, sculpture, collage, and art books to explore materiality, intertwining reality and fantasy. The volume features contributions by leading international scholars and an extensive iconographic repertoire, including previously unpublished works and archive documents. Text in English, French and Italian.
