-
EP016 - Henry Darger - Part 2
"Rather than condescendingly and misguidedly treating Darger only as a case study, we can look into his work for what it may tell us about both the powerful allure of mass-mediated narrative and imagery and the possibility (or impossibility) of escaping the labyrinthine and often terrifying...

EP015 - Henry Darger - Part 1
In his external life Darger was a pitiable figure, reclusive, impoverished, orphaned at 16, often regarded as crazy, suffering almost constant pain in his later years and working menial jobs his entire life. However in the internal world of his writings and art he was both a hero and anti-hero,...

EP014 - Carlo Zinelli
“As though this were the moment he had always been waiting for, Carlo immediately set out on his extraordinary journey, filling large sheets of paper one after the other, with total concentration, occasionally declaiming words in his sonorous voice and a language all his own." Michael Noble...

EP012 - Nek Chand - Part 2
"Curiously, the Garden seems simultaneously made and not made for the visitor, and I felt as though I had happened across a great secret—despite the fact that on that day, like any other at the Garden, thousands of other paying visitors are also enmeshed in the same “secret.” Tracy Ann Buck...

EP011 - Nek Chand - Part 1
“(Nek) Chand’s private vision engaged India’s collective spirit. Here, what has been called “outsider” art proves more culturally affirmative than the aesthetic of high modernism officially endorsed and imposed as the architectural vision for the region.” (Groundwaters: A Century of Art by...

EP010 - Madge Gill
There is something unique and fascinating about the work of the self-taught visionary Madge Gill - the nameless women that feature in almost all of her drawn and painted works provide a haunting gaze challenging the viewer to both look more closely but, so intensely do they stare, it’s hard not…

EP009 - Bill Traylor
Born into slavery in the American South in 1853, emancipated in 1865 and living into his 90's Bill Traylor's life spanned a tumultuous time in US history.

EP007 - Martín Ramírez - Part 3
The artwork of Martín Ramírez is singularly distinctive. Once seen, never forgotten and always recognisable, his drawings play many of the same notes time and again, rearranged and reimagined but always clearly in his hand... Martín Ramírez on Artsy - https://www.artsy.net/artist/martin-ramirez...

EP006 - Martín Ramírez - Part 2
Last time on the Outsider Art Podcast we left Martín Ramírez in 1948, having met Tarmo Pasto, the main actor in his discovery narrative. Pasto would go on to play one of the major roles in the last part of Ramírez’s life as an artist and be the primary source of his story and guardian and…

EP005 - Martín Ramírez - Part 1
First things first – let’s get some of the myths about Martín Ramírez straight – he wasn’t mute, at the time of his committal he was very likely not severely mentally ill, and the Freudian interpretation of a sexualised meaning to his many drawings of trains and tunnels is highly likely to be...

004 - Adolf Wolfli - Part 3
“The victor (Wolfli), at one with the sacrifice, here in full grandeur; never has the front of the coin contrasted so strongly with the reverse: on the one side, ithyphallic, pursuing some poor little girl, on the other side, cheerful, though always locked in, sleeves rolled up, plug of tobacco…

003 - Adolf Wolfli - Part 2
In 1916 as part of the second of his narrative works, the Geographic and Algebraic Books, Wolfli assigned himself a new name (which required some explanation), “St. Adolf the I, Great-King of Grenoble-St. Adolf King, Giant-City in Savojen; last named with an additional calculation-supplement of…
