| The Center for Intuitive and Outsider Art |
Hours: |
July 13, 2007 - January 5, 2008 Since its inauguration in 2002, Intuit's permanent collection has grown considerably due to the ongoing generosity of our supporters. The collection demonstrates the complexity and dynamism of the artists that exemplify the fields of outsider, self-taught, and art brut. Artists represented in this exhibition include Martín Ramírez, Ted Ludwiczak, Eugene Andolsek, Alexander Maldonado, Old White Woman, Louis Monza, Eddie Arning, Howard Finster, and Betty Zakoian. To coincide with two prominent exhibitions occurring in the Midwest this fall, the traveling exhibition Martín Ramírez at the Milwaukee Art Museum and Intuit's A.G. Rizzoli: Architect of Magnificent Visions, Intuit's permanent collection will also feature a group of works dedicated to those artists who lived as immigrants in America or whose work was informed by their immigrant experience. Martín Ramírez Untitled (Horse and rider), ca. 1953 Graphite on pieced paper 28 1/2 x 24 in. Collection of Intuit: The Center for Intuitive and Outsider Art, gift of Phyllis Kind, 2006.22.8

Intuit: The Center for Intuitive and Outsider Art promotes public awareness, understanding, and appreciation of intuitive and outsider art through education, exhibition, collecting and publishing. Intuit defines ‘intuitive and outsider art’ as the work of artists who demonstrate little influence from the mainstream art world, and who instead are motivated by their unique personal vision. This definition includes art brut, non-traditional folk art, self-taught art, and visionary art. |
