Artist
Albert Wainwright
Albert Wainwright is an Art Brut artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
Albert Wainwright made watercolours that dip into the everyday magic of performance. One of them is A Contortionist in a Cabaret, a 1930s sheet where a human figure twists into impossible shapes under stage lights. The loose, flowing brush catches the moment before the trick, no drama, just the quiet craft of bodies and paint.
Want to see where the contortionist’s next pose might take the eye? Tap straight into the same sheet.
