This is the most enjoyable 21 mins. & 21 secs. I have spent in ages. Such a treat to see absolute freedom of expression, and awareness by so many people. I have been trying to find outsider art since moving to Minneapolis, not much success so far. I don't need the holy grail, just my true love, outsider art, and those who create it.
OMG, to see a Grandma Moses painting up close like that was super cool! 5:40 Augustin Lesage as well! 6:43 Really appreciate you making the whole video! Thanks!!!
Thank you for your video. One minor comment: 12:00 - Avant-garde is not a specific art movement or style. It is simply French for cutting-edge, the latest and most advanced. Most of the styles we know were in their day considered avant-garde; with time they become the mainstream and other movements take their place. Outsider art ignores even the notion of avant-garde since it operates outside the established art world. Generally outsider artists do not know about art history or art trends so the idea of "latest" or "cutting edge" is meaningless to them. The reverse is not necessarily true, since mainstream artists who want to create something radically new often look into sources like outsider art for inspiration.
Man I so appreciate this! I love outsider art and the unpretentious raw intensity. I teach art and poetry adults with disabilities in Vermont and have the honor of experience fresh creations on a daily basis. You would love it. Just needed to thank you for sharing!
Every time I show people my art it leads to decussion of trying to make money off of it immediately. A lot of people would wonder why you would even make art if you're not trying to make money..
Thanks for a great tour of Outsider art fair ,I missed it for the first time ever and you helped alleviate that in a very articulated and critic info. Like Dore Ashton said we are first reporters then... "critics"! Great art-history vid-clip, Grandma Mothes, Bill Taylor,etc keep up the beat! RO
Outsider Art has completely become an obsession, wish I had known about it years ago! My goal is to have a collection of at least three works by each artist. Most of it these days is becoming more expensive as the market for it increases which doesn't seem right. But Oh well, good I suppose
"Outsider" nothing. These works are stunning--technically sophisticated and very soulful. Qualities that are sorely missing from all art in general these days.

Hey Cloudhiden, I've bee a fan of "outsider art" since the 1970s, so any chance I have to spread the word is an opportunity to convert folks to the joy and surprise of the "outside"...(and I get to Vermont every chance I get.)

VERY VERY VIBRANT....thank you!!
Outsider art comes from the soul, its not for people looking for something safe. It has a story to tell which provokes some thinking.
Every time I show people my art it leads to decussion of trying to make money off of it immediately. A lot of people would wonder why you would even make art if you're not trying to make money..
Art without ego or explanation...if there were a god, he'd approve.

I love outsider art. I see better art than I see at Art Basel.

I would have loved to watch this but your hand held camera gives me motion sickness
It's amazing that James Kalm does what he does...you can always google the artists to get static images.
