Hi lakmar,

first go to the menu and choose Preferences/Folders/Brushes. Then look 
at the right pane.

Alternative 1 (Use default user brushes path):
The first item in the path list should be something like 
/Users/YourUsername/Library/GIMP/2.8/brushes/.
That's the default place for user brushes. Put your brushes in there, go 
to the 'Brushes' dockable dialog (Windows/Dockable dialogs/Brushes) and 
hit the 'Refresh brushes' button on the lower right. If that doesn't 
work, then restart GIMP.

Alternative 2 (Add a new user brushes path):
Add /Users/YourUsername/Library/Application Support/GIMP/brushes to the 
list on the right hand side and activate it (put a tick before it). Put 
your brushes in there, if you haven't already done. Restart GIMP.

Kind regards,

Sven
