The museum constantly displays part of its collection, including works by major creators such as Aloïse Corbaz, Augustin Lesage, Marguerite Sirvins, and Auguste Walla. The Art Brut pieces are created by self-taught artists—solitary individuals living on the margins of society, patients of psychiatric hospitals—who produce work apart from tradition and artistic trends, without concern for public criticism or the gaze of others.

In the 1950s, the Swiss Armand Schulthess (1901‑1972) set out to create an exceptional environment in the canton of Ticino. This multifaceted work unfolded outdoors on a site of nearly 18,000 m². It comprised a network of trails, walkways, bridges and stairs, and a multitude of suspended objects and installations, often attached to trees: reclaimed metal pieces and plates that he engraved with inscriptions testifying to his encyclopedic knowledge, especially in the realms of science and philosophy.
