His idealistic approach to aesthetics embraced so-called "low art" and eschewed traditional standards of beauty in favor of what he believed to be a more authentic and humanistic approach to image-making. He is perhaps best known for founding the art brut movement, and for the collection of works—Collection de l'art brut—that this movement spawned. Dubuffet enjoyed a prolific art career, both in France and in America, and was featured in many exhibitions throughout his lifetime. ## Quotes by Jean Dubuffet · Page 2 > [With respect to the use of this sparkling coloured material (butterfly wings around 1955, fh) - the constituent parts of which remain…](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/jean-dubuffet/with-respect-to-the-use-of-this-sparkling-coloured-material-butterfly/) [Jean Dubuffet](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/author/jean-dubuffet/) [Aim](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/aim/) [Image](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/f3f/jean-dubuffet-15341_aim_with-respect-to-the-use-of-this-sparklin_2583992.jpg) ## Jean Dubuffet by topic [Artist (17)](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/artist/jean-dubuffet/) [Art (16)](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/art/jean-dubuffet/) ```json { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@graph": [ { "@type": "ItemList", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/author/jean-dubuffet/#itemlist", "name": "Jean Dubuffet Quotes", "numberOfItems": 1, "itemListElement": [ { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 1, "item": { "@type": "Quotation", "text": "With respect to the use of this sparkling coloured material (butterfly wings around 1955, fh) - the constituent parts of which remain indistinguishable - with the aim of producing a very vivid effect of scintillation, I realised that, for me, this responds to needs of the same order as those that formerly led me, in many drawings and paintings, to organize my lines and patches of colour so that the objects represented would meld into everything around them, so that the result would be a sort of continuous, universal soup with an intensive flavour of life.", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Jean Dubuffet" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/jean-dubuffet/with-respect-to-the-use-of-this-sparkling-coloured-material-butterfly/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/f3f/jean-dubuffet-15341_aim_with-respect-to-the-use-of-this-sparklin_2583992.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/f3f/jean-dubuffet-15341_aim_with-respect-to-the-use-of-this-sparklin_2583992.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/f3f/jean-dubuffet-15341_aim_with-respect-to-the-use-of-this-sparklin_2583992.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“With respect to the use of this sparkling coloured material (butterfly wings around 1955, fh) - the…” — Jean Dubuffet", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } } ] }, { "@type": "Person", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/author/jean-dubuffet/#person", "name": "Jean Dubuffet", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/author/jean-dubuffet/", "image": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/wp-content/uploads/sms4s/authors/processed/b012/author-jean-dubuffet-47986.jpg" }, { "@type": "ProfilePage", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/author/jean-dubuffet/page/2/#webpage", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/author/jean-dubuffet/page/2/", "name": "Jean Dubuffet", "isPartOf": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#website" }, "mainEntity": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/author/jean-dubuffet/#person" }, "primaryImageOfPage": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/f3f/jean-dubuffet-15341_aim_with-respect-to-the-use-of-this-sparklin_2583992.jpg" }, "description": "Jean Philippe Arthur Dubuffet was a French painter and sculptor of the École de Paris.
