Correspondence and papers, 1944-1984.

Correspondence and papers, 1944-1984.

The collection comprises letters and related papers covering various periods of Dubuffet's life, from his late beginnings as a painter in the forties, up to a few months before his death in May, 1985. Most of the letters are addressed to his friends and collaborators, Graham Ackroid, René Drouin, André Martel and Daniel Wallard. Two other groups comprise correspondence with the publishers Alecto (London) and Ditis (Paris). The letters are filed in alphabetical order of the recipients. Four letters to Werner Schmalenbach, the organizer of Dubuffet's exhibition in Hanover (1960), one to R. Augustincic (1959), and one to Les Lettres Françaises (1947) are placed at the end in a miscellanea folder, followed by a small group of four manuscripts.
