In Naive Art, Art scholar Natalia Brodskaia draws upon her experience and expertise as a curator at the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg to showcase a genre of art that is marked by innocence, naturalness, and spontaneity of the untaught and self-taught artist. These so called "primitive" artists first came into prominence for an American public with Grandma Moses, whose work first established the legitimacy and broad based popularity of "naive art". But this category of art stretches back into the mid-19th century as Brodskaia amply documents with her sweeping and informative survey. Profusely illustrated in color with small, medium, full page, and occasional double-page paintings, Naive Art is an enthusiastically recommended addition to personal, academic, and community library art history and art reference book collections.
