The Museum im Lagerhaus

The Foundation for Swiss Naive Art and Art Brut was founded on 1 February 1988 by the collectors Erna (1907-1995) and Curt Burgauer (1908-2002), Mina and Josef John as well as Simone and Peter Schaufelberger-Breguet. For twenty years, Simone and Peter Schaufelberger-Breguet, as director and president of the foundation board, have managed the museum in the warehouse on a voluntary basis and built up an extensive collection. In 2008, Dr. Peter Schorer took over the chairmanship of the Board of Trustees and Dr. Monika Jagfeld took over the artistic and overall management of the museum in full capacity. Foundation and Museum aim to arouse and promote interest and understanding in the different areas of outsider art.
