Art brut collectors António Saint Silvestre and Richard Treger were featured in the Portuguese press with their intent to bring their exquisit art brut collection to Portugal. They now are in search of a museum that is up to the challenge of their unique collection: over 700 works from Henry Darger and Oskar Voll to Foma Jaremtschuck and Augustin Lesage hand-picked for over 40 years.
